So now that you have a feel for how fast this industry is actually growing. Let’s look into the different job titles and salaries for this industry.
There are so many different streams of income in the web development sea. These are just three out of hundreds of positions in the Kansas City area that you can dive into.
The first stream you could swim down in web development is software development. Becoming a software engineer means designing, developing, and maintaining a company’s computer software. Using creativity and technical skills they apply the principles of software engineering to solve problems for a company. This stream can bring in roughly $50k-$80k per year.
The second stream in this industry that can be followed is being a developer for
specific companies such as Shopify or Amazon. Shopify has positions to be a Shopify developer. In this role, the low end is $40k but the high end can be closer to $130k. In this stream, you will have a specific role to fill, but you still need the basic knowledge of HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. That is covered in the web dev class.
The last stream we are going to cover in this field is being a Python Developer. A python developer has to be knowledgeable in coding, deploying, designing, and debugging development projects. Usually on the server side, which is what is referred to as the back end. A basic understanding of both front-end technologies is best in this position. If you find yourself upstream here, you could make close to $100k or more a year.
Looking at these different possibilities upstream in this industry can help you decide where you could be after taking a web development course. All of these streams are flowing because someone has learned web development. It is something that can be obtained with hard work, and dedication. Keep Swimming!
