When I moved countries I looked at 3 things
* Quality of life assuming same standard of living
* Culture and things to do beyond tourist stuff
* If I saw myself in the place for at least 5years
Going to a new country is a huge move, so be 100% sure you will like the city you'll settle and the company you will work for. Once you are there, going back will be financially and emotionally expensive.
Work is work, the pay seems good, just check the true conversion beforehand in sites like this https://neilkakkar.com/salary-calculator-by-city.html https://neilkakkar.com/salary-calculator-by-city.html
Also make plans to visit your folks regularly if money is no issue.
In regards to the sort of job you'll be performing, maybe you could apply your skills to automate the boring stuff?
Besides that, make sure to be flexible about what you eat and find friends outside work. Invest in building a social circle. I have seen many foreigners that were miserable because they never made real effort to make the new country home and kept missing the old country.
