Los Angeles, CA // 15th March 2020

According to an article published by industry website dice.com, the number of available jobs for software developers in the US is set to continue increasing until 2026.

Although some professions are seeing job numbers reducing as a result of new technologies, software development is one of the few industries where a steady rise in job numbers is expected in the coming years.

According to the article, more than a quarter of a million new jobs are expected to be created by US companies over the next 8 years, specifically for software developers.

Allegedly, some professionals in the software development industry were worried that sophisticated algorithms may reduce the need for new software developers, but this isn’t likely to happen in the next 8 years. The writer of the article Nick Kolakowski stated “That job increase through 2026 should come as good news to anyone considering a career in software development. Over the past few years, as machine-learning algorithms have become more sophisticated, some tech pros have harboured a growing worry that software will take over the bulk of coding work, putting a sizable percentage of developers out of business.”

However, if the number of new jobs roles grows as expected, software development will continue to be a highly desirable and lucrative job role for qualified professionals and those looking to study software development at the college level.

In recent years, software development companies have seen a huge demand for their services. tasks vary from creating automation software to help a business or creating apps and web design.

Jobs are expected to be spread evenly across large tech corporations and independent app and software development companies that are based in the US like KTree that currently employs 100+ web and mobile application development experts.

This steady rise in the number of jobs available is great news for software developers who, due to high-demand, earn upwards of $100,000 per year on average.

If the rise is as predicted, software development is likely to remain a highly coveted profession for young people studying at prestigious colleges over the next decade.
