Salary of Data Engineer

Do data engineers or big data engineers in India get a similar salary as SDE or data scientist or is it lesser or more than SDE/DS? What are your numbers and YOE as data engineer?

Thanks in advance🙂

I was making around 25LPA at 2.5 years of workex. This was SDE2 level pay I guess. Stocks above this

Well 9 lpa from a tier 1 is a bit lower than you shouldve gotten, but I guess if you are good at your job and manage a switch you should be able to negotiate >15 atleast. What tech stack are you working on?

Is switching to Data Engineering from SDE worth it in 2023 ? What are the companies having high demands for DE roles ? Mention approximate salaries for a developer with 2-3YOE.
