As a well wisher advice to all software engineers

I'm a full stack developer with 2 years of experience. I'm good at development and beginner at dsa noob at system design. What should focus on to get into Indian startups with salary more than 30lpa fixed as a 2 year experienced dev. Should I focus more on dsa or sys design or both? Is there anything else that I need to look into?

Its been 3 years working in tech for me. There has been so much learning thanks to the great peers i had the chance to work with but I have this constant feeling that there is much more to learn and I might not be using my time effectively. I know there are video courses or playlists on youtube but after a stressful day of work it become tedious to sit through another video just blabbering stuff which stops making sense post 5 minutes. How do software engineers continue their learning journey without being burdened? Is one on one mentoring useful for such cases if money can be used for sense of commitment?

I am fresher and am about to leave college. What advice would you like to give to us freshers to earn that much.

I am a budding s/w developer. Out of my curiosity and zeal to learn and to sharpen my skill i built a product delivery framework for the organisation I worked on contract for the past 2 years. Which somehow went on to have a bigger impact on the organisation's product delivery timelines. I thought I had accomplished something today with my ability but then came a shock to me. My reporting manager who i used get approval for having few permissions from the upper management for implementing such a framework has procured the documentation of the framework and pitched the framework among the pm as it was his own idea and effort even he changed the documentation author to his name( that org hardly writes docs for their products) and pitched the framework accross the org and got all the appreciation without putting any effort into it. This is a great learning for me and a good experience for the people who are reading it. My advice to young s/w engineers whichever org you work your idea and thinking will be fresh and innovative It's better to save your idea and effort for the later stages of your career in the org once you get some sort of ownership on what you work so that you can't depend on your levels who just approach you in the intention to steal your efforts always. True hard work always has a reward. You thought I was ending it here but no . I had plotted plans to screw him over stay tuned...

I am currently working in a Series A funded startup based out of Blr, and we are hopeful to raise another round in a few months (let’s assume this is certain for the sake of discussion). I’m thinking b/w between deciding to stick here for 4-5 years min, and pursuing MBA (aiming for abroad ideally) I am a growth manager right now, with 4 years experience in total, w/ 1.5yr at my present company. I get along with my team very well, think my manager is a great mentor for me right now and really love the product we are building. The growth prospects of the company are pretty good as well and we are very (cautiously) optimistic about raising Series B in this funding winter. My main dilemma comes when I think of money that I can probably earn here or elsewhere if I pursue education further. No matter where I work I’d rather do it for the stock options and give myself a chance at an early age to get to a good financial state asap. At the same time, despite the upfront costs that an MBA brings, there’s sureshot way that I’ll get to a higher pay whereas relying on a Startup’s ESOPs is riskier comparatively. I’ll be walking into my appraisal call in a couple of weeks. I’m paid 20L fixed + 10L ESOPs right now. I studied at a tier 1 institute, not that it matters, but compensation wise I want to be matched to my peers. Is it sensible for me to ask for a marginal fixed comp hike and ESOPs of 30L-40L (is this the right amount to ask for the risk I’m taking) in the hopes of getting wealth - Is this significant enough for me to ditch my other options (or companies)? Or should I stick to standard hikes and pursue an MBA?

I am 4 months into my first job as a product manager. I have never coded in my life except for a basic coding course in college. While I am always eager to understand technical concepts and tend to ask a lot of questions around the same I still feel there's a huge gap in communication. This leads to poorly estimated timelines, and often difficulty in assessing feasibility of ideas. I wish to learn more about software architecture, data management systems and the development processes in general. While I know I lack technical expertise, I don't want to discount the possibility of this just being a communication issue within the team. This is a series B startup just entering the growth phase, so no proper processes are set up as of now - again something I will have to streamline. My question is to all the product managers especially who don't come from a technical background - how did you bridge this gap?

What’s the most important career advice you’ve ever received? It could be anything, an advice from your colleague, a lesson you learnt the hard way, or a piece of wisdom that changed your perspective! 🌟🌟
