Finally some good crypto news for all the blockchain engineers, according to salaries reports, the average earnings of a blockchain engineer can reach up to $170,000 per year.
The blockchain engineers are almost tied with the artificial specialists or regular software engineers where they can reach from $130,000 up to $175,000 since the demand of blockchain is growing immensely every single day. This salary is much higher than other tech engineering roles.
According to Hired CEO Mehul Patel:
“There’s a ton of demand for blockchain. Software engineers are in very short supply, but this is even more acute and that’s why salaries are even higher.”
Hired provides data for all blockchain roles and according to data from 2017, the demand has increased by a stunning 400 percent despite the bear situation on the market. The demand is most likely due to the rising in the interest of global tech giants such as IBM, Amazon, and Facebook. All of these giants are employing specialists from this sector.
Most of the engineers need to have skills such as Java, JavaScript fluency, C++, Solidity, Python coding languages, and a lot more cryptography computing skills. According to Hired, the report was done between tech workers in more than thirteen global cities that were based on more than 400,000 interview requests.
By using Hired’s salary comparison tool, you can clearly see that the demand for blockchain engineers is the highest in San Francisco, London, and New York. Also, the blockchain job industry sees a large uptrend movement in Asia as well.
