Abstract

This study investigates supply and demand dynamics within the software development sector in Poland and the Baltics in 2023, focusing on talent availability, market needs, and industry responses to global challenges. Using data from platforms like MeetFrank and SoDA reports, the research explores demand fluctuations for roles such as Software Engineering and Project Management, alongside wage trends influenced by economic and political factors. The methodology employs a 60-day rolling window to calculate correlation matrices across job categories, revealing interdependencies—such as the positive link between Software Engineering and Design roles and the inverse relationship with Sales & Business Development, signaling shifts in hiring priorities. Key findings indicate that, in response to global tech layoffs and economic uncertainty, the industry is prioritizing strategic talent management and flexible, project-based teams. While demand for developers in Java, JavaScript, and Python remains robust, salary expectations and contract terms have adjusted to market pressures. This research emphasizes a data-driven approach to talent strategy, combining technological tools with human insight to support responsive, effective workforce planning in a fluctuating market.
