16 mins to read Hello, I'm back with you all! ?
To be honest, I've seen quite a few interesting job openings on MyJob.one recently, and today I want to chat about several in-demand positions in the Web3 industry. Did you know? Last week, I met a candidate in a café who received three Infrastructure Engineer job offers at the same time, and I was left stunned...
Oh, sometimes I think about how fast the Web3 industry is growing. Last year, we were desperately hiring Solidity developers, but this year, the trend has shifted. Today, let this eight-year Web3 recruitment sister take you through the top six hottest job roles on the market right now!
1. System Architect: The Architect of the Web3 World
To be honest, I was a bit confused when I first saw System Architect job listings. You know? It's like how building a house requires an architect, Web3 projects need system architects too.
Thinking it over, it really makes sense, especially with Layer2 solutions being so popular. A good architect can help a project save a lot on gas fees! I remember a project last month that hired an experienced architect and directly optimized 40% of their on-chain interaction costs.
Oh, and for this role, they typically require:
- 5+ years of experience in distributed system design
- Proficiency in at least two blockchain protocols
- Knowledge of technologies like ZK-Rollup, Optimistic Rollup, etc.
- Salary range is usually between $150,000 and $300,000 (yeah... I know, it's tempting)
2. Infrastructure Engineer: Building the Highways of Web3
Speaking of Infrastructure Engineer job listings, I suddenly remembered a team I met at the Berlin conference last month. They were building cross-chain bridge infrastructure, and even though it was raining heavily that day, the discussions in the meeting room were intense.
This type of engineer is like the highway builders of the Web3 world, mainly responsible for:
- Node deployment and maintenance
- Network performance optimization
- Building security monitoring systems
To be honest, I've seen many engineers transitioning from traditional cloud computing doing very well in this field. Salaries... usually between $120,000 and $250,000, depending on the project funding.
3. Marketing Lead: Making Sure No One Misses the Project
Oh, when it comes to Marketing Lead job listings, I can't help but sigh. Last week, a DeFi project came to me complaining that even though their TVL was excellent, no one knew about it...
Actually, Web3 marketing is quite different from traditional marketing! A good Marketing Lead needs:
- Familiarity with community governance and DAO operations
- Understanding of marketing tools like NFTs and airdrops
- Ability to communicate in "crypto language" with the community
Did you know? I've seen some successful Marketing Leads who actually transitioned from being KOLs. Salary ranges vary quite a bit, from $80,000 to $200,000.
4. General Manager: The "All-Round Manager" of Web3 Projects
To be honest, when I first saw General Manager job listings, I was a bit puzzled. Aren't Web3 projects decentralized? Why do they need a General Manager?
Thinking it through, it actually makes perfect sense! Especially during the project's 0-to-1 phase. This type of talent typically needs:
- Extensive entrepreneurial experience
- Exceptional resource integration skills
- Sensitivity to regulatory policies
I know a GM who manages three teams across three countries, with meetings every day... Salaries are usually between $180,000 and $350,000.
5. ASO Manager: Making DApps "Visible"
Speaking of ASO Manager job listings, I have to share an interesting story. Last month, a gaming DApp saw its user base triple after optimizing its app store search ranking!
This role might sound quite "traditional," but it's incredibly important in the Web3 space:
- Need to understand crypto user search habits
- Familiarity with app store algorithms
- Ability to work closely with development teams
To be honest, finding a good ASO Manager is harder than finding a Solidity developer now...
6. Reporter: The "Information Bridge" of Web3
Finally, let's talk about Reporter job listings. Did you know? I've recently noticed many traditional media professionals are transitioning into Web3 content creation.
A good Web3 Reporter needs:
- Strong technical understanding
- Extensive network connections
- Keen industry insight
I've seen some top-tier media reporters earning over $150,000 annually, and the best part? Work location is completely flexible! Oh, it's making me think about switching careers...
Final Thoughts
To be honest, as I was writing this, I suddenly realized that maybe market changes aren't as scary as they seem. The key is to find your niche...
