There is absolutely no tech talent shortage in europe, but there is a shortage in cheap tech talent, not only in europe. Businesses want young developers (<30y), with a broad skillset (fullstack ninja, ...), only a little bit of experience (accept everything without thought) and life expenses of a student living on ramen. If you have true experience and can prove it, you won't be hired, because you're overqualified (could scratch the ego of the founders wrong) and may ask for "too much" money, despite you could easily replace a whole group of inexperienced developers. Finally, this shows in current startup-products: immature, half-broken, naive thinking, overvalued, mostly useless.
