How big is the demand for software engineers?

In today's world, with the continuous development of information technology, IT technology has penetrated into every part of our lives, and the demand for IT talents has also increased dramatically. Do you know how big the demand for software engineers is. According to statistics released by the China Software Industry Talent Training Strategy Seminar, Beijing UI Design found that my country currently lacks about 500,000 to 600,000 software developers, and will lack a larger number of software development talents in the next 5 to 10 years. With the rapid development of China's software industry, more and more large foreign companies, such as Microsoft and IBM, have set their sights on China, using China as the center of their software R&D, testing and outsourcing services, and are demanding software development and testing talents. The demand is very high.

It is understood that software engineers have become the most in-demand talents, with demand in Beijing and Shenzhen accounting for 33% and 30% respectively. The demand for software technical talents in the market has increased sharply, resulting in a situation where talents are extremely in demand. The emergence of this situation has also caused the salary of software engineers to "increase all boats". According to salary data provided by the Talent Research Center of China Talent Network, the annual salary of senior software development engineers in the four representative cities of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen is generally around 120,000 yuan, and high-income earners can reach around 300,000 yuan.

According to the latest statistics from Beijing Beida Jade Bird, the most recruited talents in many IT industries are: JAVA software engineers, technical support engineers, hardware engineers, soft test engineers, project managers, etc. In the future, the market will still maintain strong demand for software talents.
