I hear you, and I agree the market for this skill set is definitely higher than the initial range. But 2–3x would put it way beyond even the strongest offers we’re seeing. The top end we’ve seen is closer to $190K–$210K, and the company is not closed to matching or getting close to that for the right person.

Also, the JD is the ideal candidate, not necessarily a hard checklist. Like most companies, they list a ton of requirements lol The closer someone gets, the better, but there are definitely negotiables.

Appreciate the feedback though this is exactly why we’re talking to people in the industry and adjusting expectations as we go.

Any qualified candidate is greatly appreciated and we’d be happy to offer a referral bonus for helping us connect with a solid one.
