 As businesses increasingly shift toward more complex digital solutions, the demand for skilled developers, particularly in Full Stack Web Development and QA Automation, has surged. In response to this growing need, Crio.Do, an experiential learning platform for technology professionals, analyzed 1,168 job postings, shedding light on current trends in these two critical domains. The report offers an in-depth examination of required skills, geographical distribution, industries seeking talent, and how Crio.Do’s programs align to prepare candidates for these roles.

Titled “2024 Job Trends for Full Stack Web Developers and QA Automation Engineers,” the report highlights significant growth in Q3 2024, with 1,168 unique job listings. Full Stack Web Developer roles accounted for 680 of these (~58%), while QA Automation roles made up 488 (~42%). These opportunities spanned various industries—from tech giants and medium-sized firms to startups—signalling widespread demand across sectors.

The report also indicates that, in 2024, proficiency in JavaScript-based frameworks and full-stack technologies has become a non-negotiable requirement for developers, while QA professionals with hands-on experience in automation frameworks are in the highest demand. Additionally, it reveals a shift in work environments post-pandemic. While 15% of job postings still offer remote roles, more companies are transitioning to on-site (55%) or hybrid (30%) models to enhance collaboration, particularly in cities like Bengaluru, where close-knit development teams are highly valued.
