Your best option would probably be working for an American or international company branch there, as local companies don't pay much at all and the market is full of skilled professionals with STEM background, many of which actually moved away from Russia and many others are looking to, but still there's just still too many of them especially in cities. It's hard to compete with them. Working for a branch of an international company sucks anyways, you probably want to work in HQ to get the best opportunities as opposed to working in branches. Also, IT in Russia is supplementary in many cases as opposed to be a profit driving factor as in many American companies, therefore it is less respected with the exception of relatively small amount of local companies who sell their products/services internationally. As a person from Russia I worked there for major companies and government entities such as central bank of Russia via managed security services providers and it always sucked in pay compared to what people get in IT in the US where I moved 3.5 years ago and quadrupled my salary easily. And I'm not talking about quality of life factors here such as tiny apartments, high crime, crazy driving, huge crowds everywhere to the level when you can barely secure a table for yourself to eat your big Mac or something in a fast food joint. Also, Russian language is pretty hard to learn. Brian Krebs gave up on this, for example.

How about the ambulance coming in 40-60 minutes if at all? How about not knowing whom and when and how to bribe? That's not exotic, that's downright dangerous. And if there's a heart attached, then that girl is dreaming of getting married and getting the !@#$ out of there.
