They already pay mid 6 to low 7 figures. The people who can and are willing have already moved over.

Care to share with rest of the class what the role is, then?

Principal and distinguished engineers, some Sr staff.

working with what tech? you didn't answer the question to a reasonable extent. it seems odd you need to hire people into principal and "distinguished" titles, you should be promoting from senior/staff to fill those internally. unicorn hunting is an organizational problem, not a useful reflection of the hiring market

Most people who make it to staff will not ever be qualified to sr staff, then the same for each next level.

All of the big tech companies I’ve worked for were founded by immigrants, and had many key immigrants in early Sr positions building the company.

trapped in a bubble… nobody is good enough to work here. go back to bangladesh where all your sr staff must live

still couldn’t answer a basic question. I know I wouldn’t be hiring you with this communication track record

lol, I answered the question.

And FWIW most of the people I worked with were from Europe, with advanced degrees

> working with what tech?

Oh, all sorts. Distributed systems, storage, compute, security, etc.

At these levels you end up doing a very broad range of stuff.
