> People don't want solutions to yesterday's problems. These are considered trivial and already solved, such as invoking a shell command (which just hides a lot of complexity under the hood). Noone will pay you for invoking existing solutions.
I am not exactly sure what you mean by this, but taken literally; most companies pay well for this and it's also the most common work programmers do all over the world. But maybe I misunderstand your meaning.

Google pays a lot and has huge scale plus is considered quite innovative (I think they publish a lot of papers each year), yet most of their work is the typical enterprise middleware development job.
