  • Applied for a Blockchain Architect role with a reputed Layer 1 protocol and cleared the technical round. The position is fully remote, based in India, while the company operates from the USA.

    Looking for insights on two key points:

    1. What is the typical blockchain architect salary range for remote roles in Layer 1 blockchain companies?

    2. How should cost-of-living differences between India and the USA factor into salary expectations and negotiations?

    Share your experiences or advice on negotiating for remote positions like this.

    Blockchain architect salaries for remote roles in Layer 1 blockchain companies typically range from $150,000 to $250,000 annually, depending on experience and the company’s funding stage. For a remote role based in India, many companies align salaries closer to global standards but may adjust slightly based on location.

    When negotiating, consider the cost-of-living differences carefully. While living in India might reduce personal expenses, your contributions to a global blockchain ecosystem merit competitive compensation. Emphasize your technical expertise, successful completion of their rigorous hiring process, and your potential impact on the protocol.

    Request a breakdown of the total package, including equity, bonuses, or tokens, especially for Layer 1 protocols. Tokens might add significant value but also carry volatility. Ensure USD payments for stability and explore perks like hardware allowances, co-working stipends, and healthcare to strengthen the offer.
