Software engineers earning higher salaries: study

Managers have a median base pay of up to $13,750.

Amidst technology downturn, a Nodeflair study showed that software engineers are earning increasingly higher pay, with junior engineers receiving a median base salary of $5,000.

The mid-level engineers’ wages are even higher, up to $7,000 and $8,000 respectively. For managers, the median base salary reaches $13,750.

There is also a disparity between top earners and those at the bottom of the ladder, with the former earning up to three times more than the latter.

Junior engineers at the 90th percentile can now expect to earn $8,500 (up from S$7,500), whilst mid-level and senior engineers can earn up to S$11,000 and S$12,000, respectively. Principal software engineers can have a base salary of $19,000 (up from $17,000).

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
