There is a lack of technical (and female) crypto talents: report
- The fastest growing blockchain roles are quality assurance analysts, cryptology technicians and compliance specialists
- The CEO of The Crypto Recruiters said that developers were always in great demand, although many "incognito went".
The range of engineers and IT talents in the blockchain industry does not do justice to the demand.
According to a new study by the okx crypto exchange and LinkedIn, mature markets for digital assets have shifted the requirements of companies on technical roles-especially with regard to security.
Financial talents account for 19 % of blockchain-oriented employees, according to the report. Engineers, on the other hand, make up 16 %. And business development, information technology and sales representatives each make up about 6 %.
The most sought-after jobs are crypto dealers, software engineers, analysts, support analysts and customer supervisors-who tend to go hand in hand with a relatively higher remuneration.
According to LinkedIn job advertisements, however, the financial category took sixth place in June in relation to the demand for attitudes. Instead, employees in the areas of engineering and information technology are the most sought-after because companies build blockchain skills, followed by experts in the areas of product management, marketing and human resources.
The study examined both crypto-native companies and traditional companies that try to gain a foothold in digital assets.
The fastest growing title was a "quality assurance analyst" that had a growth rate of 713 % from June 2021 to June 2022. Cryptology technicians and compliance specialists took second and third place with growth of 350 % or 253 %.
"The blockchain industry is changing from a high-financial statement to a high-technical nature," the report says. "It will fully exploit the combination of technical and financial characteristics of the blockchain in order to gradually develop to an important part of the digital economy."
Emily Landon, CEO of The Krypto-Rekrutierer said that their company will receive many inquiries for marketing, investor relations and developers-including Frontend developers Those who are familiar with the Rust and Solidity programming languages.
But it is becoming increasingly difficult to find technical talents, since candidates do not always market themselves well on LinkedIn, she added. Others have deleted their LinkedIn accounts due to spam of recruiters, said Landon and instead flocked to Twitter and Discord.
"It makes it difficult to find them on these platforms," said Landon. "Basically, these developers went incognito."

The average service of global blockchain talents is 1.2 years according to the report. Apart from the influx of employees from financial and technology companies into space, the influx of talents in the industry mainly comes from the segment.
Despite growth from year to year, female talents remain scarce overall. According to the report, the segment has about four times more men than women.
"[We’ve had] It is incredibly difficult to find women in space," said Landon. "We want to help that more women get into technical professions."
