Frequently asked questions

What does a Java full-stack developer cost in the US?

$60 to $135 per hour on a vetted marketplace, $125 to $215 through an agency, or $105,000 to $175,000 full-time.

Is full-stack Java realistic or just a job title?

Because the systems are long-lived and business-critical. Companies pay for continuity, not novelty, and that keeps the mid and senior bands firm.
