By reaching out to them, you may look like a desparate, which can lower your chances during negotitation stage (that would point them that you are only in a process with them).
Unless you are involved in more than one process that you try to keep in sync (useful for negotiation strategy) I would not reach out first.
I was also interviewing other places and it generally took at least two months to do a full interview loop before I got to the offer stage or rejected (I didn't fail any screens).
These were all FAANG and adjacent companies though, this last round of job hoping I decided to try huge companies only.
Startups usually move much quicker if they have headcount.
If you're certain your last interview was a final interview, you should ideally hear something within 24hrs. Allowing up to 48hrs is polite. Anything beyond that it is 100% reasonable for you to reach out to them and ask for an update.
Sr AppSec Engr role - last interview friday, sent thank you email to recruiter monday, he responded tues saying he would see if the hiring mgr has an update....... so idk.
