Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

I’m currently interning and working at a fintech company in Bangalore, where I primarily work with React and Node.js. I also do some freelancing in UI/UX design.

At the moment, I’m learning Next.js and exploring DevOps.

I’m considering a job change and would like to know if it’s feasible in the current market conditions. If so, could you suggest some companies where I might apply? Currently, my compensation includes a fixed salary of 8 LPA and a 3 LPA bonus distributed over 3 years.

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Hello everyone 
So a little about me: I’m a software developer working in a fintech startup in MOHALI.
2022 pass-out interned in the same startup as a backend intern in node js which was then converted into a full time offer after 6 months. Worked in node for almost 1.5 years, then switched to python + ops 
Starting compensation was 7 lpa and currently is 9 lpa. 
Thinking about switching but at the same time market looks risky as well.
Need suggestions for what to do, be it tech stack(is python in demand or node in demand?) , job change

Software Engineer

Hi.

I'm a 9yr exp full stack engineer. Have done webdev mostly.
Currently earning around 30lpa
I want a job change because:
1. More money
2. Bored of webdev

I was looking around and HFT seemed interesting to me. I haven't done my full research on it, but from what little I have done, it seems like it is a very niche vertical requiring highly skilled folks and also we don't have HFT companies in India?

Anyways, I'm not fixated on HFT, that's just one avenue I explored.

I just want some better paying programming job where I can feel livelier. For eg., when I do complex DB queries for debugging and reports, or digging and parsing logs to find patterns and debugging, or optimizing some piece of code to squeeze more performance out of it.

I am fine with writing basic routine to make bucks but it's not fulfilling.

Please advise how to go about my career progression in a fulfilling way.

Salary discussion

I am working in a Pre Seed GenAI Startup (2020 Founded) as Head of Engineering (Team of 20 with 5-6 in Engineering, No CTO) 

It's been 3.5 years (3yrs Full Time + 6mon Internship) Previously it is in EdTech now in GenAI Space 

My CTC is 8 LPA + 0.45% ESOPs (10-12L in 25cr valuation). 
Skills: Nodejs, Nextjs, Monorepos, MongoDB, AWS, Serverless

1-2yrs ago we were thinking about scaling the tech team, etc but then that EdTech model started failing and then we went to a war time after that we pivoted currently also we are burning money revenue is there but very less (25% of the expense)

I was of the view that I want to lead teams and scale products That's why I was there in the team It can be the case tomorrow if we scale 

but Now I am confused whether I should switch my job and or stick with the startup maybe the startup grow tomorrow or a big VC fund us to scale (as I have ESOPs) or it will just be a waste of time or opportunity cost

Please guide 🙏 Anyone with a similar startup experience would really appreciate your help 🙏

Need Career Guidance in Tech (Switch or Not?)

Hi, I have been working in Infosys for past 3.5yrs. my starting salary wad 5lpa and now it's 8lpa. I feel I should be compensated more based on work that I put into my projects for which the most feasible option would be to switch. Hence, I need some advice related to job-switching from fellow software engineers who have already been able to do that. 
My skills are Java-spring boot , react , sql, github copilot, kubernetes, What other skills do I need to know to be able switch comfortably? Kindly suggest some websites where I should be applying from. In the coming days maybe after March would be good time to apply, don't you think?

What scope do I have in product based companies? TIA

Job Switching Advice

Hey peeps!

Currently working in a Fintech company in Mumbai as a Frontend Engineer with over a year of experience. The current CTC is 7 LPA. 

I feel like the growth here is limited and from the past few months there's been a lot of micro-management. Even the CTC is not up to Mumbai's expense standard. I live in a soapbox and pay like 1/5 th of monthly salary. Standard of living has been decreasing while it should be opposite.

+ I've 6 days work week with 9 hours /day shift. Although I've decided to drop in papers soon, I'd like to hear your opinions. 

Brownie points if you refer me to some good early stage startup probably in BLR or Pune or Remote.

Should I continue or resign

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

I got a job offer of 10 LPA base as a Business Analyst at a BFSI company. The work is full remote with an option to do hybrid as well. The office is in Bangalore and I really want to move there since it’s just the starting of my career and I feel like I could learn a lot by being in office, but idk if I can afford Bangalore rent and COL with this base. Any inputs (including your thoughts on if I should stay remote or move to Bangalore) are appreciated.

Fresher with 10 LPA (Base) offer. Should I negotiate?
