How to Become a Full Stack Developer

Full stack developers play a core role in any organization they work in. They’re crucial members of the team that write code, create user interactions, and perform duties on the front and back-end. Curious about the exact details that come with the role? We share everything you’ll need to know about becoming and being a full stack developer.

Full Stack Developer Job Description  

A full stack developer works on both the front-end and back-end development processes within a company. They’re responsible for using languages and tools like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, C++, python, and many others to build applications, programs, or websites. This role may work with other tech professionals or even other developers to design and develop a project from start to finish.  

Full Stack Developer Training 

Like other jobs in the tech industry, becoming a full stack developer comes with its set requirements and training. Anyone can jump in even if you have no previous experience. It usually takes a few months of training, minimum, to learn the skills needed. During this time you can expect to learn about project management, troubleshooting, writing code, and all of the technical skills needed to work on front and backend technologies.  

Full Stack Developer Salary 

There are several factors that can end up impacting a salary for a full stack developer. However, average entry level offers are around $75k annually. However, depending on where you are working and who you are working for, you can see this fall anywhere between the range of $45k to over $100k annually.  

Those with more experience will see themselves earning a higher salary as the years go by. The good news with that is that experience can always be developed either through your job or by taking classes and dipping into continuing education, training courses, or certification programs.   

Full Stack Developer Resume 

A full stack developer has knowledge and experience on all many technical skills from front-end to back-end development. The best resumes for these roles show off work experience and any sort of education or training. They should include qualifications that demonstrate why they are the ideal candidate for the role.  

Like other roles in the tech world, taking the time to refine and build more skills as software, systems, and equipment advances is very important.  

Full Stack Developer Jobs 

When job searching, you’ll find that most companies either have or are searching for a full-stack developer. This is because these sorts of roles are integral to helping a business grow. Front end developers could be working on any number of tasks throughout their day to day whether it’s website creation or database building. These are important priorities that businesses require.  

As you can tell, these roles require extensive knowledge of how technology works. Centriq’s IT training program is specifically designed to help you learn it all. We only teach technology which means by the end of your four-month program, you’ll have all the IT experience needed to apply for a computer technician job.
