Generative AI role

Confuse about job market & current trends. How much package should we expect with 2.5 years of experience in core Data Science & Generative AI

Hey everyone, I am just trying to understand the market right now..I have 7.5 years of experience and have been a senior consultant for a year or 2 now. Worked on RPA and other intelligent automation with career start as a Java associate developer. I have an in hand of 17lpa. What can I expect if I switch. I have been slowly moving towards ML and Gen AI. As I don't feel RPA will be there in some years. As gen ai is gonna take over everything. What do you guys suggest? Is it right time to switch?

Hi guys, I am currently working as an APM at an AI startup(B2B SAAS) working on genAI product. Have 2 YOE and base of 20 LPA. Looking to switch due to growth barrier and work culture. Have given interviews with startups in similar domain for APM roles but getting ghosted after 3-4 rounds. I am looking for 20-30% hike. Am i asking too much? Any suggestions? Background: B.Tech from IIT Delhi Current CTC:21Lpa YOE- 2 yrs

Hi, I've been working as a data scientist and currently have a 2 yoe in a product based b2b startup(directly joined from college). But almost everything I've done here is a job of a SDE, and now I'm looking for a switch. I think I'm good in DSA/LLD and have been repreparing for it from last few months. But the problem is, the quality of software engineering work here is really not upto the mark, everything I worked upon was mostly from scratch, so I don't have the experience of working with an existing large codebase. Secondly, although the features I got to work on sound fancy but I don't think they were much challenging , it was some API doing normal DB operations etc. There was also some work on building some satellite imagery and some other data downloading, storing and fetching services. Even those were mostly about DB operations. Thirdly, the startup I work in doesn't have much requirement of writing proper test cases, or writing very modular code (although I try to write as much as possible), neither the APIs faced much scale issues (as it's a b2b startup and the APIs here really don't face that amount of scale which many of the other companies I heard of face) I did learn a lot of some of the most used AWS related services, as I also got to work on building deployment pipelines over kubernetes etc. But in general I'm very much in fear if I would be doing good if I join any good company especially the MNCs as a SDE-1/2. I do feel I can clear the DSA+LLD interviews and maybe even the beginner level HLD interviews (which are asked at my experience level) but I feel quite inferior to the crowd who will be working there and I might even not match the requirements/quality of my peers properly in the starting. Backend tech stacks I worked on: spring-boot(20%), python-fastapi/flask/django(80%) and also have worked with postgres and mongoDB. Feeling very lost here, can anyone suggest any way such that along with interview preparation, I also get a much better developer who can actually start contributing in the bigger companies and not considered as a liability and get laid off later.

I've done my Btech in EC from NIT. Worked for 2Y as a dev in IT Services co. Then I did my MBA from one of the old IIMs. Got placed as a "Consultant" in one IT services co, where JD said the role is client facing and business centric. Have been working here for close to 2Y. Basically I'm part of an Agile project team, as another Dev/QA resource. I basically do QA for project releases and occasional SQL scripting. Tried internally to switch to a Project/BA role but this experience is hindering me. Outside it's even worse as I don't even get shortlisted. I believe I have good skills to excel in Product/BA/Project roles. But not getting them as I don't have any prior experience. My confidence is very low now and my career seems to go nowhere. The pay is also worse, 21.6LPA currently ( of which 17.6 is fixed). I'm not complaining and this money is a lot for most people. But it's not even close to what my juniors after 2 batches earn. The only upside in my job is no pressure and can work remotely most days. What should I do ? Shall I learn AI/ML and move to an Individual Contributor role ? How to get shortlisted for these after prep? Any advice or leads would be helpful, TIA.

Hi. I have worked in Zomato's Neutrality team for about 2.5 year and I switched to another food tech startup in August. My designation is in the post title. Since the product just launched in November, I'm the only person in this team RN. My KRA's include 1. Setting up the content guidelines, moderation SOP and moderating content 2. Identify bugs and UX issues, and solve with the product team 3. Setting up new features for the platform - working on gasification and cross-posting RN I am wondering what is the salary for such a role in the market.

I am an ML enthusiast and have been learning Reinforcement Learning and other Algorithms to shift my profile to ML engineer. But as soon as I started applying for jobs, every job is looking for people who have experience in GENAI, LLMs, etc. So I want to know, how can I become one?

I have never worked on AI or ML. Seeing the career opportunities in AI (specially generaive AI) I want to enter into it. I am interested into AI and not ML. ML is too much of mathematics I feel. I am golang and mictoservices based software architect. How can I make this switch? Will attending some udemy cources and doing a project help? Is it possible in golang or do I must have to switch to python?
