But it's an ever-changing job market. One day a skill is hot and the next, it's not.
Job site Dice.com recently published its 2015 Salary Survey which named the highest-paying tech skills.
Dice, a tech-specific job hunting site, surveyed 23,470 IT professionals in the fall of 2014 to come up with this list.
Of course, skills alone won't always lead to a high salary. Work experience counts too.
