Should I focus on getting a non Ruby on Rails job?

Hello, I'm 9 months into my first job, as full stack using Vue with TS/JS and Ruby on Rails for backend. I like the stack and the place I work but my salary is really low (19k, am based in the south of Spain).

While I think I'm learning a lot and thats the more important thing in the moment, I'm worried about my low salary and getting pin holed into a non popular stack, what do you think should I do in my situation?

  • Keep at it for 1-2 years more? I could get a signifcant raise in 2027 but nothing is set in stone
  • Wait till 1 year mark and aggresevly look for something else? How should I prepare?
