The major changes in the Java market over the past 6 months involve flexibility with the type of background required. Developers with any Object-Oriented Programming language (e.g. Python, Scala, Kotlin) now have much more opportunities to get into a Java-focused role if they don\u2019t already have this experience. The same can be said for Java developers – it has become much easier for them to move into roles that use different languages.<\/p>\n
In terms of development, the most in-demand skills are in relation to experience with the Spring framework and Big Data technologies such as Hadoop, Spark, Kafka & cloud experience with AWS<\/a>, GCP, Azure or others. Communication skills are becoming increasingly important also as there are more and more roles that will involve client-facing interaction.<\/p>\n Salaries for Java developers<\/a> have increased as companies need to stay competitive but these increases are relative and typically tend to be within larger organisations or multinationals. There is a variety of companies hiring in this sector ranging from small start-ups to organisations gearing towards IPO and large multinationals. Java skills are always in demand and Dublin has a very large tech hub so there are always opportunities for developers with these skills.<\/p>\n Candidates in this market are generally looking for several things when considering a new role<\/a>; the opportunity for progression, remote options, a good compensation package and work-life balance. Clients typically look for developers who have experience with full ownership of a product lifecycle as well as experience with greenfield projects, cloud experience and experience with the Spring framework (Spring Boot to be specific). Essentially, clients are looking for a modern Java stack.<\/p>\n With the majority of people still working remotely and the threat of ransomware attacks, Cybersecurity<\/a> is on the rise and more Java candidates are becoming interested in this industry.<\/p>\n Typical benefit schemes that are on offer include a 10% bonus, pension, healthcare, dental care, flexibility with remote working, and stock options.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”section” _builder_version=”3.22″ custom_padding=”3px|||||”][et_pb_row admin_label=”row” _builder_version=”3.25″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_padding=”5px|||||”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” _builder_version=”4.2″ text_font=”Montserrat||||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ link_font=”|600|||on||||” link_text_color=”#0c27d6″ header_font=”|600|||||||” header_text_color=”#c4062f” header_font_size=”20px” header_line_height=”1.4em” header_2_font=”Montserrat|600|||||||” header_2_text_align=”left” header_2_text_color=”#c3212e” header_2_font_size=”22px” header_2_line_height=”1.6em” header_3_font=”Montserrat|700|||||||” header_3_text_color=”#000000″ header_3_font_size=”15px” header_3_line_height=”1.6em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” text_orientation=”justified” width=”90%” width_tablet=”100%” width_phone=”” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_alignment=”left” custom_padding=”20px|20px|20px|20px|true|true” hover_enabled=”0″ header_2_font_size_tablet=”22px” header_2_font_size_phone=”20px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” header_2_line_height_tablet=”” header_2_line_height_phone=”1.4em” header_2_line_height_last_edited=”on|desktop” border_radii=”on|6px|6px|6px|6px” border_color_all=”#344c62″ border_color_bottom=”#c3212e” border_style_bottom=”solid” […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":86611,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"none","_seopress_titles_title":"Java Developer - IT Salary Survey Ireland September 2022","_seopress_titles_desc":"Java Developer skills are always in demand and Dublin has a very large tech hub so lot's of opportunities for Java Developers with these skills in 2022.","_seopress_robots_index":"","_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":" Here at Archer, we have reopened our doors and a small portion of us have returned to the office. Having returned to the office, I\u2019ve found it\u2019s a good time to reflect on the difference between working in the office and working from home. <\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Undoubtedly, there have been many challenges with working from home. From issues with WiFi and technology to finding a quiet place to work. From mobile coverage and communication to being able to switch on or off, as well as missing the buzz of the office. All of these are challenges that many of us have had to adapt to and overcome. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n With that being said, I've taken the time to think about some of the great things about working from home. I\u2019ve come up with a list of 3 great things about working from home that I think people could incorporate into their new routines in the office.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n For me, number one on the list was choosing when or if I was interrupted. It gave me a little bit more headspace as I was able to get on with things that maybe I would have been distracted by previously. Number two is the improved communication within our teams. I have found that the quality of interactions between our teams has improved tremendously. It\u2019s been great taking the time to interact and understand what\u2019s going on in their worlds. Last but not least on my list is having more quality time with the family. Being able to sit down and have lunch with them has given us some extra time to interact and engage with each other. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n So, since we're back in the office, we're looking at how can we bring in some of the good things about working from home into the office and what they might be. I'd be really interested in hearing what other people are finding works well for them outside the office, and working from home and what they'd like to be able to bring back into the office when the time comes.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n I\u2019ll be welcoming any thoughts or comments. Thanks. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Sam Perrin<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n 01 469 8512<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.archer.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86609"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.archer.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.archer.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.archer.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.archer.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=86609"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.archer.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86609\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":86741,"href":"https:\/\/www.archer.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86609\/revisions\/86741"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.archer.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/86611"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.archer.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=86609"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.archer.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=86609"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.archer.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=86609"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}For more information on the current IT job market and the latest salary bands, please download our\u00a0IT\u00a0<\/span>Salary Survey here.<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/h3>\n
