Hey Fam,
I’d love your advice on how to navigate the Bubble Developer job market.
I have been working on Bubble as my full-time work not as a contractor but as an employee. I was fortunate enough to impress my CEO so much with what we could do for his businesses by building dashboards, workflows etc with Bubble, that I became a full-time developer for him for almost 3 years.
I got the CEO to believe in efficiency building with software so much so that he convinced himself that he needed to align with a development agency which put me out of work.
I’m not here to cry about that, I’m here to ask what the Job Marketplace is like for Bubble Developers as I stumbled into this profession and have never needed to search for work in it.
It seems that Full-time work for a company is less popular than being a freelancer, becoming a freelance brings some new challenges on my part but I am wondering if that is the only way to work as a Bubble Developer realistically or are there a lot more employee work that I am missing…
My worries about Freelance are the typical stuff of learning pricing and the time it takes for X job etc, but my biggest concern is that I feel that I can’t compete with how cheap people are on platforms like Upwork.
Any wisdom or advice on how to navigate this?
