I recently got a salary stub for a Python engineer
Opened it silently
Then I silently closed
Video shows: This little brother Position: Python engineer
Basic salary: 12,000 yuan, monthly bonus: 14,000 job allowance: 800 overtime salary: 600
Total: 27400 Insurance 270.89 Taxes: 2740.09
Actual salary: 24388.21
A tax deducted 2,740, more than some people's wages!
So, is this true? Python really has such a high salary? Can you become a highly paid Python engineer? Let's take a look.
01 What is so good about Python?
▷ Easy to learn
Python is a language that represents the idea of simplicity, and the programs it writes feel as fluent as reading English paragraphs.
In addition, using Python can also write pseudo-code, which allows us to focus on solving problems when developing programs instead of understanding the syntax of the language itself.
▷ Free, open source
Python is free and open source. Simply put, we can freely distribute software copies, read and modify the source code, extract some functions for other software, etc. The reason why Python is so good mainly depends on its open source characteristics. It is created and often improved by a group of people who want to see a better Python.
▷ Portability
The Python program can be ported to many platforms, and it can run on many platforms without modification. These platforms include Linux, Windows, FreeBSD, Macintosh, Solaris, etc., as well as the Android platform developed by Google based on Linux.
▷ Object-oriented
Python supports both process-oriented programming and object-oriented programming. In "procedural-oriented" languages, programs are constructed from functions that encapsulate reusable code. In an "object-oriented" language, programs are constructed from objects composed of data and functions. Compared with other major languages such as C++ and Java, Python implements object-oriented programming in a very powerful and simple way.
▷ Rich library
The Python standard library is very large, it can help you deal with various tasks, including regular expressions, threads, databases, web browsers, unit tests, GUI (graphical user interface), and so on. In addition to these standard libraries, Python also provides many high-quality libraries, including wxPython, Twisted, and Python image libraries.
So, what is the current application situation and employment situation of Python? Let's analyze it in detail below.
02 How about the application and employment of Python?
1
Large demand and wide use
The number of professional and technical personnel vacancies in the AI field exceeds 5 million! With the continuous upgrading of technical requirements, the demand for skills in the most general programming language Python has increased by as much as 174%! Projects such as Google earth, Google crawler, and Google ads are also using Python to develop extensively. Many Internet companies, including Reddit, Douban, Pinterest, and Zhihu, use Python as their main programming language.

During the two sessions, artificial intelligence technology has become a national strategy, and to enter the field of artificial intelligence, Python is the only way to go, and Python engineers are hot! Of course, Python can not only be engaged in AI-related work, but also many positions such as data analysis, crawling, web development, etc. are also essential items for large companies!

So far, whether it is in the first-tier or second-tier cities, the demand for jobs is in short supply.

High salary
Some organizations have crawled Python jobs across the country, and finally found that the highest salary for Python is in first-tier cities, with an average monthly salary of up to 25K!

Even in second-tier cities, such as Wuhan, the average salary of Python development engineers is as high as ¥11280/month! Generally it can be between 15K-20K.

The "AI Talent Competitiveness Report" released by Liepin.com also pointed out that the average salary of practitioners in the AI field is higher than the average salary of the Internet industry. The average annual salary in the higher quarter is 330,000 yuan, which is nearly 50,000 yuan higher than the average annual salary of the Internet!
