Overview
Why Metana’s Rust Bootcamp?
Ready to master production-grade Solana blockchain development? You’re in the right place.
Blockchain is no longer experimental – it’s transforming finance, gaming, payments, and digital ownership. Among today’s leading blockchains, Solana stands out as a high-performance, scalable network used in production.
With fast transactions, low fees, and energy-efficient design, Solana powers real-world applications across DeFi, NFTs, gaming, and consumer Web3. Its ecosystem has matured rapidly, backed by strong developer adoption, robust tooling, and growing interest from startups and enterprises.
Yet, there’s still a shortage of developers who truly understand how Solana works under the hood, and even fewer who can confidently build and deploy programs using Rust, the language behind Solana’s core infrastructure.
That’s where this bootcamp comes in.
Metana’s Rust Bootcamp is a deep, practical, career-focused program, not another surface-level course. You’ll learn how Solana actually works and how to build secure, scalable decentralized applications from scratch.
By the end of the bootcamp, you’ll be able to:
- Build and deploy real Solana programs using Rust.
- Understand Solana’s runtime and accounts model.
- Create end-to-end decentralized applications.
- Think like a professional Web3 engineer.
Build NFT platforms. Create on-chain games. Design DeFi protocols.
Whether you’re launching a startup or joining a Web3 team – the foundation starts here.
Roles and Salaries
Solana Rust Developers are a specialized group of engineers working at the intersection of blockchain infrastructure, high-performance systems, and decentralized applications.
Since Solana programs are built in Rust and run at production scale, developers with this skill set are in high demand across Web3 startups, protocols, and infrastructure teams. Compensation varies by experience and domain, with protocol-level and Web3 roles typically paying at the higher end.
Top-end compensation is most common in Solana programs, DeFi protocols, NFT infrastructure, and core blockchain tooling.
| Position | Avg Yearly Salary | Min Yearly Salary | Max Yearly Salary |
| Senior Solana Rust Developer | $160k | $130k | $190k |
| Mid-level Solana Rust Developer | $120k | $90k | $140k |
| Junior Solana Rust Developer | $65k | $50k | $85k |
