  • Just wrapped up all my technical rounds for a blockchain dev role at a US-based Layer 1 company (woohoo!), and now it’s time for the HR talk. And honestly? I have no clue what number to throw out.

    I’ve got 5 years of experience, mostly working on Layer 1 and Layer 2 solutions, deep into Rust for smart contracts and performance optimization. Right now, I’m based in Nigeria, so this whole US salary thing feels like a guessing game.

    What’s the ballpark for someone at my level? What’s too high? Too low? I don’t wanna shortchange myself, but I also don’t wanna price myself out.

    Help me out,—what should I ask for? 🚀

    For a blockchain developer with 5 years of experience, salaries in the USA range from $130,000 to $180,000 annually, depending on location, skills, and company size. With expertise in Rust and layer 1 and layer 2 solutions, aim for the higher end of this range.

    Rust skills are in high demand, especially for smart contract development and performance optimization. Highlight your experience in improving blockchain scalability and secure coding. Focus on how your skills align with the company’s technical needs during the HR discussion.

    Research salary data for the specific city or state where the company operates. Be clear about your expectations and back them with examples of your achievements in blockchain development. Discuss additional benefits like equity or bonuses to understand the total compensation package. Use this information to confidently negotiate a salary that matches your skills and experience.
