FULL STORY
======================================================================

A new study backed by data from more than 3,200 UK developers (and 65,000 
developers from 185 countries) carried out by Stack Overflow has revealed the 
potential earnings for developers across Britain. 

In its roundup of the top 10 best-paid developer roles in the country, Stack 
Overflow highlighted developer experience roles as the most lucrative, with a 
median salary of nearly 147,000. 

Even the tenth highest-paying job attracts a salary of more than 83,000, 
which is considerably more than the UK average of 35,880 (via Forbes ). 
Developers in the UK can earn a six-figure salary 

Rounding up the top three are engineering managers and blockchain roles, with 
average earnings of over 109,000 and 105,000, respectively. Together with 
developer experience roles, these three titles are the only ones with a 
six-figure average salary. 

That said, site reliability engineers, project managers, developer advocates, 
AI developers and senior executive roles (such as C-suite workers and VPs) 
all sit in the 94,000-98,000 bracket. 

Security professionals, designers and cloud infrastructure engineers earned 
an average of 83,000 to 86,000. 

Regarding the best position at work, Stack Overflow confirmed that managerial 
roles are the best-paid, attracting an extra 31,000. Back-end developers came 
next, followed by mobile, data engineers and front-end workers. 

Stack Overflows research also extends to the best programming languages to 
learn for developers wanting to be considered for higher salaries  those 
capable of handling OCaml earned an average of 10,000 more than Scala and 
Solidity workers. Cobol and Groovy rounded up the top five. 

With the need for highly skilled developers showing no signs of slowing down, 
spending time on personal development and boosting skills could prove an 
incredibly rewarding process for Britains developers. More from TechRadar Pro
