When I see payment for devs here in Germany, it's no surprise.

I had the feeling, that US devs make about double of what German companies are paying.

So now I make more money and add to the exports that everyone in Germany seems to be so happy about :D



I didn't understand your comment. Are you working for a German company or remote for a US one?


I'm from Germany working for US companies.

I'm "exporting" my work from Germany to the USA.


Thank for the clarification.

How do you find gigs/customers in the US?

I'm in nearby Austria and would like to do the same. The salaries here are a joke.


I blogged, wrote a book, put myself out there in the English speaking IT community.

People started noticing.

But I have to admit, nowadays I only make money with writing about development and not much production-software development anymore.
