Okay, let’s calculate this. So Kshitij has 2+ years of experience as a Senior Subject Matter Expert, which is a relatively junior role in the IT industry. His education is in physics, which is a niche field. Location is Hyderabad, India, which is a growing tech hub, but still relatively affordable compared to major US cities. Considering these factors, I’m estimating an hourly rate of $75, which is on the lower end of the spectrum for an IT professional with similar experience and education. Some junior IT professionals in India might charge $20–$50 per hour, but Kshitij’s experience and education suggest he could charge more. Let’s assume he could charge around $100–$150 per hour, but given the constraints, I’m rounding down to $75.
