A recent report from staffing site
Hired.com showed blockchain engineering as the software role with the strongest growth in demand at 517% year on year. Security engineering came second, up 132%.
The company provided salaries for five locations, and blockchain engineering was in the top three bracket for all of them. In Paris, blockchain engineers take the number one pay slot with an average salary of €58,000 ($67,000). The role ranked second in London (£69,000/$89,000) and New York ($137,000) and third in Toronto (CAD 107,000 / $79,000) and San Fransisco ($155,000).
So a company could hire 2.5 blockchain engineers in Paris for the price of one developer in San Francisco. The salary figures are averages, so it’s conceivable that some locations could bias towards more senior roles.
