I think it would be a good experience for you if you worked in a startup. Don’t get me wrong Fortune 100 companies are great but you won’t learn as much as you will in a startup. My recommendation is work in a product first startup.

How to ace working as an engineer at a new startup?

It is all about confidence and how quickly you can learn. Then watch your salary go up 10x in two years. I’m not even kidding.

What if I've already done all that learning and 10x-ing but in corporate? How to ace my startup role now if I can learn quickly? What even is acing?

What do you want from a startup?

I see so many folks complaining about status quo around where they work. Very curious to understand what are your expectations from a startup and the founders. This may help us get what we want from startup founders here.
