You can create a helper class to get current category information as given below:

<?php

namespace Amit\Test\Helper;
class Data extends \Magento\Framework\App\Helper\AbstractHelper {

    public function __construct(
        \Magento\Catalog\Model\Layer\Resolver $layerResolver
        ) {
                $this->layerResolver = $layerResolver;
    }

    public function getCategory() {
        return $this->layerResolver->get()->getCurrentCategory();
    }
}

And get the category level in product/list.phtml using below code

$testHelper = $this->helper('Amit\Test\Helper\Data');
$catLevel = $testHelper->getCategory()->getLevel();
