Any good product company hiring backend devs without DSA?

Hi I am a backend developer with around 4 years of experience.

I have strong development skills in building scalable & distributed systems. I have opensource contributions in reputed projects (netflix, apache, casbin etc.). Most importantly I can take ownership of any work I get and have the capability of finishing it.

What I am not good at it is DSA. Why? Because I don’t feel like investing time there is gonna give me satisfaction. (I feel comfortable solving dsa while walking & and doing something else, not under pressure of clock in front of a guy evaluating me, my brain doesn’t work like that)

I have given up applying to companies where they ask DSA. I am LOOKING OUT for companies asking relevant questions. Or give me take-home assignment and grill me for hours, won’t mind that.

Do share if you know any. Thanks.

Paisa abhi bhi bohot h, Mujhe quality work chahiye for exponential growth.

Paisa end goal nahi h, I am willing to work at lesser salary at good companies

I feel you man. Check early stage startups. Wellfound and YC are two good places to search for them. Have a good GitHub readme profile. all the best.

Thanks buddy! Wellfound is quite dry ryt now. I think this industry lacks this mindset that code contribution to a good opensource project > solving dsa
