As a junior software engineer you should definitely put feelers out. I would bet changing jobs will increase your pay by at _least_ 10% (that's what happened to me) when most companies only give a raise of about 5%. Even if you don't want to change jobs, if you get an offer somewhere else for more pay you can show that to your current employer. If they really want to keep you then they will increase your pay to match.
