In my experience, 50k USD is entry level pay (~1-2 yr experience). Tech salaries tend to cap out at around 100-120k USD for director/VP roles, but you can reasonably expect to find 80k USD jobs if you're a software dev who's reasonably up-to-date with one of the in-demand tech stacks and have a few years of experience.

  80k CAD = 64k USD. I can make 2-2.5x more for the same job, remotely. Around 140-160k USD.

    In my experience, a 80k CAD position would translate to a ~100k USD position. A 140-160k USD position would translate to a ~120k-140k CAD position.
