About Australia's jobs market

About Australia's jobs market

Australia's tech ecosystem is experiencing a hiring boom – with hiring rates up 30% year-on-year to 32% in 2025, outpacing Europe's major tech hubs and driving fierce talent competition.

However, Australia's 19% attrition rate – higher than the global average and most APAC neighbours – signals talent mobility in a competitive market.

Mid-level software engineers earn a median of AU$138,000, sitting between higher-cost markets like the US (1.50x differential) and lower-cost options like India (0.48x).

As global firms increasingly tap into APAC talent and AI reshapes junior hiring (down 73% globally), staying competitive requires real-time market intelligence.

Companies like Tracksuit, Propeller and Blackbird use Ravio to navigate Australia's dynamic, fast-moving talent market and make proactive compensation decisions in this high-growth environment.
