Software Engineering salaries in South Africa | Software Engineer

Описание: In this video, I’m breaking down entry-level software engineer salaries in South Africa and comparing them across three different industries using real offer letters from my friends 👀💰
If you’re a student, graduate, self-taught developer, or aspiring software engineer, this video is for you. We often hear vague numbers online, but today I’m showing actual salary figures, industries, and roles to help you understand what entry-level pay really looks like in the South African tech space.
I compare:
• Entry-level software engineering salaries
• Different industries hiring software engineers
• How the same role can pay very differently depending on the industry
• What graduates can realistically expect when starting out
• Why your first salary isn’t the end goal, but a starting point
As a software engineer in South Africa, I know how confusing it can be when you’re trying to decide:
– Is software engineering worth it?
– Which industry pays better?
– Are graduate programs underpaying or fairly priced?
– How much should I accept as a junior developer?
This video is meant to educate, not discourage. Your first job is about learning, exposure, and growth — and your salary will grow with your skills, experience, and confidence.
