Okay, let’s tackle this. So Gino has 5 years of experience as an Applications Engineer at Datel, and a 5-year stint as a Sr. Design Engineer at SL Power Electronics Inc. Both roles are in the engineering field, which is a good starting point. His skills in hardware, power electronics, and design are in demand, but not extremely rare. Location is Stoughton, MA, which is a relatively small town near Boston. Engineers with similar experience and skills in this region might average $100–$150 per hour. Considering Gino’s experience and skills, I’ll estimate around $125 per hour.
