One was a remote job at a SV startup and now I'm making pretty much the same in an in-office job in an international corp. I filled a niche they badly needed to fill (it's not like I'm some unicorn though) hence the unusally high pay.

Is that niche called Machine Learning? :)

Nope, it's Big Data (infrastructure, pipelines etc.). Nothing exciting or innovative, it's just that there are too few people in this field who know what they're doing compared to the demand.

That's weird, because most Big Data jobs I know about are paying below average rates, like 3000 USD after tax, no more. Basically there's almost no market for such skills in Poland, yet.
