Hello everyone,
I hope you're all doing well. I have a question regarding the salary of PHP developers in Ireland.
I am currently a PHP developer based in Dublin, and I've been working in this field for about five years now. I have a good understanding of PHP, along with frameworks like Laravel and Symfony. I also have experience with front-end technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Recently, I've been considering a job change and I wanted to get an idea of the average salary range for PHP developers in Ireland. I understand that salaries can vary based on factors such as experience, location, and company size, but I'd like to get a general idea.
So, if any of you have information or personal experience regarding PHP developer salaries in Ireland, I would really appreciate it if you could share some insights. It would be great to know what the average salary range is for PHP developers in Dublin specifically, but any information about other cities or regions in Ireland would also be helpful.
Thank you in advance for your help!

Hey there!
I'm glad you brought up this topic because I happen to have some personal experience with PHP developer salaries in Ireland. I've been working as a PHP developer in Cork for the past three years.
From what I've observed, PHP developer salaries in Ireland can vary quite a bit depending on various factors. In general, the salaries are quite competitive, especially in cities like Dublin and Cork where the demand for skilled developers is high.
For instance, as a junior PHP developer with around one or two years of experience, you can expect to earn between €35,000 and €45,000 per year. As you gain more experience and move up to a mid-level position with about three to five years of experience, the salary range can increase to somewhere between €45,000 and €60,000 per year.
Senior PHP developers with over five years of experience and solid expertise in frameworks like Laravel or Symfony can earn even higher salaries. In Dublin, for example, it's not uncommon to see senior PHP developers earning between €60,000 and €80,000 per year. Of course, these numbers are just ballpark figures, and there are always exceptions depending on the company and negotiation skills.
It's worth noting that the cost of living in Ireland, especially in cities like Dublin, is quite high. So, when considering salary expectations, it's important to take into account the cost of rent, utilities, and other expenses.
I hope this information helps you get a better understanding of PHP developer salaries in Ireland. Good luck with your job search, and feel free to ask if you have any more questions!
