Quick engineering salary comparison based on the #DEVBG stats from 2023 and 2024 in the Bulgarian IT industry. Dev.bg publish yearly a summary of the Bulgarian IT engineering salaries based on the job openings offers on their platform. https://lnkd.in/dNU5MD8D (2023 stats) https://lnkd.in/dX_dxvP7 (2024 stats) Based on the population data (let's assume it's a proper representation of the real world) we can determine the following: 1. PHP should be dead but it isn't (unfortunately) as it's one of the two categories with growing salaries in all job positions and ranges. 2. The second is the full stack development with a minimum drop of 65 levas in the first MID range(2-5 years) 3. All ranges except the Senior level(5+ years of experience) have a drop in salary compared to 2023 but for some seem negligible compared to the notion in the industry that "it's going down and AI will take over the world" :) 4. We can see that seniority still counts and there is now a shift towards growth of salaries of more senior people compared to others as the market tries to regulate. 5. There is still a lot of green for a "dying" and "shrinking" industry. P.S To anyone interested I can share the excel if needed but it's quite straightforward to generate it. *Legend: Diff min Mid - difference in the minimum ranges for a category between 2023 and 2024 Diff max Mid - difference in the maximum ranges for a category between 2023 and 2024 Diff min Sen - difference in the minimum ranges for a category between 2023 and 2024 Diff max Sen - difference in the maximum ranges for a category between 2023 and 2024 Diff min Sen Median - difference in the minimum ranges based on the provided median from dev.bg for a category between 2023 and 2024 Diff max Sen Median - difference in the maximum ranges based on the provided median from dev.bg for a category between 2023 and 2024

If you are curious on "Evolutionary Architecture" don't miss our .NET User Group Zürich May Meetup where we will cover the topic providing some lessons that diverge from "pure tech" talks. On this one, Maciej Jedrzejewski will explain How incremental developments in core engineering have enabled the foundations for enable software which can evolve over time along the architecture, protecting important architectural characteristics as it evolves. All while keeping it as simple as possible, maintainable and manageable in amount of complexity. Sounds interesting? ;) It is!! And even more if you have 5+ years of experience, chances are that you have lived a project that died because of complexity and lack of proper architectural vision (partial or... complete) - I've been there! So, how does it sound and all of this - for free!! Thanks Digitec Galaxus AG and Maciej Jedrzejewski!!! I am not going to miss it - and so should you... RSVP while you can, places are limited: https://lnkd.in/dmnnEGUZ Ah, we will have Food & Drink #architecture #software #evolutionaryarchitecture #KISS #DRY #easy #maintainable #resilience

Maaret Pyhäjärvi told me once: "Our careers are too important to be left to our managers to set our goals on." That conversation encouraged me to create my "Managing Up" talk, where I share a few practical tips on *how* to do it. This particular skill set was invisible to me for most of my career, and I decided to make it visible and practical. I hope you like it, and more importantly, I hope it helps you take more control of your career goals. If you’d like a more detailed and customized version of this talk or a workshop that dives deeper into these topics aligned with your team’s needs and company context, contact me over DM or email (irja.straus@gmail.com). I’ll be happy to support you in achieving your goals.

HOW TO SOURCE DEVELOPERS ON DEVSCANR This is a tutorial on how to find technical talent. We will use the DevScanr sourcing platform and the Skills-first methodology to find a “Backend JavaScript Developer” in Romania. The tutorial is inspired by a video from Michal Juhas, who was searching for engineers for the same position, but on LinkedIn Recruiter. At the end, we compare both approaches and results. https://lnkd.in/ethWmFJa

So much for the basement-dwelling programmer stereotype 😉. Conferences like the International PHP Conference are splendid opportunities to gain new perspectives - and face new challenges. 🛠️ Programming is essentially about solving problems, and events just like this conference allow us to share experiences and learn from best of the best in the industry. During sessions and workshops, I got to hear real stories about real problems - how they arise, how to solve them - and how to prevent them from reoccurring. 😉 I had the pleasure of attending talks on the latest trends in PHP, code optimization and best practices in system architecture. I learned how to avoid common mistakes and what techniques to use to make our applications even more efficient and secure. 🖥️🔐 Meeting other specialists - once again - proved that exchanging insights is the key to growth. I'm glad I could be part of this inspiring community! 🤝✨ Thank you to all the speakers and participants for the incredible knowledge and motivation! 🙏📚 Topics covered: - PHP Core & Optimization [Bohuslav Šimek, Carsten Windler] - Refactoring [Ralf Eggert] - Testing, Test Driven Development, and Logging [Florian Engelhardt] - Software Architecture & Design Driven Development [Katy Ereira, Dr. Sönke J. Magnussen] - Security 🔒 - DevOps & Deployment [Nic Wortel] - Clean Code [Ondřej Mirtes] - Git Advanced & Working with abandoned Open Source Projects [Juliette Reinders Folmer]
