Okay, let’s tackle this. So Igor has full professional proficiency in English, which is a highly valued skill in the Bay Area. His native or bilingual proficiency in Russian and Latvian is also a plus, although it may be less in demand. Location is the San Francisco Bay Area, which is a hub for tech and innovation. Considering his technical background from Rīgas Tehniskā universitāte, I’d estimate his rate to be on the lower side of the spectrum for a multilingual professional. Maybe around $100–$150 per hour. But since he doesn’t have any explicit experience or skills listed, I’ll err on the side of caution and round down to $120.
