1 Factors affecting demand and salary

The demand and salary of system development specialties depend on several factors, such as the industry, the location, the experience, the skills, the certifications, and the market trends. For example, some industries, such as finance, healthcare, and cybersecurity, have higher demand and pay for system development professionals than others. Similarly, some locations, such as major metropolitan areas, have more opportunities and higher wages than rural or remote areas. Additionally, the more experience, skills, and certifications you have, the more likely you are to land a better job and negotiate a higher salary. Finally, the market trends also affect the demand and salary of system development specialties, as some technologies and methodologies become more popular and relevant than others.

Basically, you have to say that system development depends on people who have a certain mindset. They do not necessarily need to have a specific area of expertise, but need to have a certain mindset. The mindset of identifying topics across specialist areas, locating appropriate discussion partners, team members who help to complement this interdisciplinary thinking in order to work on a holistic solution accordingly. In terms of demand and salary, I primarily see the individual's skills in terms of interdisciplinary work, independence and willingness to undergo further training; specializations may help, but are secondary in my view.

It’s important to consider the demand when you choose a new skill. The IT job market is maybe tense at the moment but all technologies don’t pay the same. Furthermore, some skills will stay useful and in demand for quite a long time whatever the technology. The perfect example is data architect (data modeler).

Basically, you should choose specializations that are close to your own interests or are already very close to your current work. You may already be able to gain an insight into them through colleagues or the projects you are involved in. Fundamentally, however, as a system developer it is essential in my view to always get a very good overview of the entire subject area that needs to be mastered and not to focus so strongly on specializations. There are usually dedicated developers for this.

I'm going to take a different approach to answer it; hear me out. Don't make it a bigger deal than it is. Being a specialist doesn't mean you're married to that particular technology. I understand it's an investment of time to be a specialist, but keep exploring different areas. Try to be someone with more than one specialty (M-shaped)

No matter which direction you come from, if you feel like a system developer and are interested in thinking outside the box, you have the best prerequisites for a system developer/engineer. If you are looking for a job where you are clearly told what you have to do, you are in the wrong place! You specify, you define systems. You work together with your colleagues from Systems Engineering to define what is not defined, secure the interfaces and provide the general higher-level functions. It is also your task to document the functionality of the overall system and thus lay the foundation for dedicated development.
