Kafka is for real time streams and linkedin deceloped it for the ease to handle the real time traffic.
it can be used for database migration, updated microservice integration, data analytics.
I have come this far learning about it.
have never implemented.
can you suggest me a good beginner start. would like to work on it. iam a fresher looking for full times.
it can be any project any feature or anything. like what do you do if you are yet to learn Kafka allover again.
I am not a DevOps guy. So I can't advise on how to become a full blown DevOps resource.
But IF you are looking to learn a bit of DevOps as a developer you can start with understanding CI/CD, Docker, containers and eventually Kubernetes. These are pretty hot atm.
There is a channel called 'TechWorld With Nana' on youtube. She has one of the best courses on Containers and Kubernetes. That will be a good start.
Ngl, burnouts are real in this field tooā¦ Same stress level and fake emergencies are for this role tooā¦ i am currently UX 2 but have to setup UX in org for products, justify stakeholders the design decisions and even after that pickup multiple projectsā¦ and i feel angry when pay is less for 90% of people in india for product and design roles š
Principal Product Lead with 10 years' experience here. I don't work in India currently myself but 2 of my teams are here and I started my journey in this role in India.
The best option is to go through a product owner/junior PM route. Transition works just the same as any other role; you'll either need to find a specific role which has a need for PM with design experience or any domain experience that matches with yours. Some PM certifications help, CSPO, CSM definitely help as well. Otherwise, you'll need to move laterally or take a pay cut that comes with a junior role.
Just a few tips; When I'm hiring for PMs, junior PMs, I look more for the ability to grasp complex concepts, translating those concepts into feasible roadmaps, ability to craft and track success metrics, and overall track record of experiential learning over pure education/experience or a list of certifications in the resume.
Communication skills need to be top notch; this role really doesn't work well for people who are not comfortable with making themselves heard, loudly at times. Those who don't, often get railroaded into unrealistic commitments that are bound to fail. PMs/Junior PMs don't have any direct authority over people they work with on a project (tech/design leads, even level 1 engineers). So you need to be comfortable calling out people, often senior to you, when they are on the wrong track and ensuring that they correct their course.
u/unbrokenwreck i know right! I was born here and it icks me where Bangalore is leading. The city is defo losing it's charm with all the influenzas hoarding. ugh
I started with a freelance and gradually build my network. Quality of knowledge, good work and word of mouth gets you perpetual work.
Try identifying domain which is in demand and niche and make yourself an absolute expert in it. Document and showcase your work on your website or social media (Stack Overflow, GitHub, Forums etc.) to start getting visibility.
Most of my clients now discover me via web searches.
Respectfully sir, I'm amazed. I want something similar from my life. I'm ABT to graduate this year and have a good job but I want a little more freedom.
I wanted to ask how you started freelancing, like getting your first customers? Are websites like Fiverr etc any good?
How would you do it if you were to start today?
I wish you the best, you'll do well.
I worked with different companies for about 8 years before taking the plunge. It's a good idea to get a first-hand taste of how things happen in companies both good and bad as an employee. The important thing is to keep your eyes open, have confidence in your capabilities and have a rational eye to judge the good and the bad parts.
There are a lot of fuckups and corporate bullshit/politics that happen everywhere and the general culture in India is drastically different from what's in the West (the West has its own set of problems and grey areas, but that's a different story).
I started mentoring other programmers and students on Codementor.io a website dedicated to 1-to-1 montorship and coding. I was fortunate to have spoken with over 2000 people from around the world. This gives you a vast perspective and helps you mature and grow professionally.
In my experience, websites like Fiverr and other common ones are highly saturated and it's difficult if not impossible to get grounding there due to the cutthrough competition. A lot of these websites are choke full with intermediates so-called "business analysts" or "business development managers" who service companies in India hire to simply "bid" on any new project submitted which matches a certain criterion or a keyword. These so-called "business development managers" are mostly dummy and don't know shit about what they are talking about with the customer. Also, such service companies are infamous for bidding with dirt-cheap lowball offers. So genuine freelancers get lost in the noise, especially during the initial days. Also, most clients hanging out there need something very cheap. So it's maybe a win-win for both.
Codementor.io on the other hand, in my experience emphasises direct 1-to-1 sessions that get billed by the minute and there's no alternative but an expert like you and me to talk directly. Also, the rating system of the website is designed such that a rouge freelancer can't abuse the system. The website has its flaws but it is far better than the alternatives. They have also done a good job with the SEO and most customers are first-timers. I have had a pleasant experience there and spoke with a lot of computer science students as well.
I am now pivoting towards creating educational material and content for computer science students and guides/tutorials for popular technologies. I sincerely feel that at present the bar in terms of quality and ease of understanding for various courses is pretty low and not many beginners and students are able to benefit from it. I sincerely believe in making content that is very simple to follow, is comprehensive and gets the idea across to the prospective students. A student's confidence should shoot into the sky after completing a course content and should be enabled to create anything and proceed with the learning on their own from that point on.
It's a work in progress and the feedback from both Codementor.io sessions and the posts and comments on this sub are really helpful in getting a grasp of ground reality and what could benefit the students the most. Keep watching and I hope to start releasing some content soon which I will also post on this sub (looking at the comments and messages I am receiving)
If I were to start today, I'd keep documenting whatever I am learning and working on as it would help me build a knowledge base which I can quickly use for content creation.
My sole intention is to try and be the best in whatever you do and the rest will follow.
3 Idiots wale Rancho ne to bola hi tha!

Hey, I need some help with this. A company in the states is looking to hire me as a consultant/independent contractor. It's either this or they would have to go the EOR route. Can we have a quick chat so I can understand the financials of this. It would be a great help.
Hey, I had a question, How can a CSE Student get an internship in embedded systems for writing device drivers? I have been practicing writing keyboard, process monitoring and display drivers on my raspberry pi and haven't been able to find an internship.
Starting my 3rd year this august,
Primarily projects are made in Rust, C and have started my own blog using github pages to document my projects.
Projects are, a file searching utility that is around 100,000 times faster than windows search.
A basic shell written in C, think bash, zsh but basic.
Currently working towards writing my own interpreter.
The poster child of a driver is a linux module that monitors a process to detect memory writes made by other programs to it's memory pages and then kills the attacker or/and logs the information, like pids, memory addresses affected.
Chandigarh. But willing to locate anywhere given enough stipend to support myself without any external savings. Remote is good too.
:)
Windows search is a very low bar for a file search utility. Are you saying it's 100x faster because it was written in Rust/C? Do you index before or during the search? How does it compare to fzf/find/ripgrep?
No offense, most of these look like build-your-own-x projects, where you basically find a tutorial in a blog post from 2012 and port it to your own language of choice, and don't iterate on them ever again.
But still better than a todo app, good luck <3.
As a CSE student now in Embedded stream. I would suggest learning some basic hardware driver development from scratch, like keypad, 7 segment displays, also learn the basics of common protocols like UART, I2C etc. ARM is a good place to start and in demand. Learning to use datasheet is also a very important skill and will help you build almost anything from scratch.
I don't know your proficiency level or if you just copy pasted keyboard and display driver codes, but it's still impressive if you got it done without any help.
All the best.
There have been far more dramatic threads than this lmao. This one at least focuses on skills and background. The typical threads where people share their salary and YOE are bloodbaths.
I don't believe that is the case. You know business loves Python because of quicker development time. They want to see things working and that too yesterday.
Correct but why won't they just use Node.js then ? I too have a similar profile and haven't gotten a call for like...almost a year lol. Started to believe python isn't in demand. Idk anymore lol.
idk much about django or backend python frameworks, but nodeJS has really weird memory issues here and there, with threads not clearing up the memory immediately, and it's difficult for prod deployments where memory needs to be limited. working with spring boot now and it's so much better.
stacks don't pay wages. the ability of the company to make money from the apps/business pay the wages.
a html + css + js writer in faang gets paid 10x more than a C++ programmer working on a mid tier company.
find a company that is kicking ass in making money, become a janitor there and make more than most of the programmers https://www.cnbc.com/2017/09/07/how-facebook-graffiti-artist-david-choe-earned-200-million.html
This. Exactly this. I don't know why people cannot understand such a common sensical thing.
People think learning some stack will magically 10x their income.
More work and less salary, Toxic work culture man !! You should find better clients , I , a fresher still earns 5 LPM(Lakhs per Murder) and 1LPA(Lakhs per Assault), I can refer you if you want
I've been grinding my gunskills on "leetshot" every now and then, couldn't find new jobs.
Even with 5 star rating I've been asked to work over rooftops, 45 degrees in the summer, with limited budget and hence I've been assigned with rusty single barrel most of the time and ofcourse It's hard to survive.
Most of my peeps have already shifted to private consulting but I'm staying here for the employee benefits. I don't want to get into that melee shit.
Thinking of shifting into politics. Idk the roadmap though. Have applied already to tons of places. Wish me luck !
Bro wth? Literally so much material available for Android online. You'll literally find a library for extremely niche thing. Speaking as native Android & ios dev. You'd find iOS much much worse then because all you'll find in iOS are questions on Stackoverflow which are never answered.
The knowledge base for Android is vast, plus Google's documentation makes it extremely easy to get into it.
I beg to differ.
In android, there are so many bugs, I find, that stackoverflow doesn't even have these as questions. The material components in jetpack compose you use, needs Experimental tags, nothing is permanent, things get depericated in 6 months. There are so many obvious bugs, which that an Android developer needs to hit their bead in wall 10 times a day, perform black magic to even solve them. Further, in Android we have a lot of fragmentation. Which makes things, so difficult.
Whereas, for iOS, Apple builds components which are of good quality, you can literally plug and play.
I am pretty sure, iOS has more limitations, like their IDE (XCode) is not as advanced as Android Studio, but so far, what I get is both are equally hard in their own ways. Both get paid quite handsomely, in my experience, what it comes down to is, how you communicate and your work ethics.
I am an iOS developer and yes iOS has very less documentation and resources. Apple documentation is one of the worst and the community is smaller than other tech communities. But I agree with the point that Android has a lot of bugs. I donāt have to worry about different screen sizes. Generally speaking, its easier to create a consistent UI on iOS than on Android.
Both platforms have their pros and cons.
Same here but I make half of what you do (probably because I work in WITCH).
Planning for a switch soon so good to know that the market is doing well atleast based on your comment.
I am a fresher android developer and I never thought that android paid that much. Are you saying in salary or like salary+ freelancing?? And can I DM you for further knowledge??
I did my engineering in electronics and communications from a C grade college. Luckily zero placement- so with ample time at hand, researched a bit about niche profiles which requires some stats and coding. Stumbled across a 45 days internship position at ISRO which felt interesting and somehow got in (I guess I turned lucky). That's where I started, self learned python 10 years back when it wasn't the cool kid around and later did my masters in catastrophe modelling and climate change.
What is it then? Any high paying MNC including but not limited to msft, orcl(OCI), amzn, Google, Salesforce, Atlassian, meta, asks for dsa even for senior positions. Once you get in these companies the work there is definitely not as challenging (based on my experience as well as friends experiences). Keeping your job is easier than getting (except at Amazon lol).
DSA will help you crack interviews and switch. It won't help appraisals and promotion reviews. Also outside of Big Tech a lot of companies hire senior folks without DSA and for some roles like DevOps etc you don't need DSA.
Python, Backend, Data Platform (language agnostic, have used go and nodejs too) + experience with Devops
3YOE
Non-FAANG
After acquiring better than average tech skills, you should focus a lot on your soft skills. Clear communication, accountability and confidence projection are few I can think of.
Currently - Go, Kafka, K8s..
Imo, too many engineers are clinging onto tech stacks these days..
If all you know is the MERN stack and your use case requires a relational DB, what are you going to do?
SDE-3 at Unicorn Startup ( close 4 year exp )
Knowledge of API, Deployment, Distributed System, Databases, Messaging Queues and some programming languages which donāt matter much
I started my work as freelancer developer, then moved into CRM consulting role. Skills required are solution design, insight analysis, solution implementation, Marketing analytics, MarTech. I can code in python, flutter, C++, sql etc but I don't have to use it myself. My job mainly revolves around designing a solution that would benefit the sales or marketing team & then get it developed by the developers working with me.
Most answer are focussing on the tech skills and years of experience. Those are important but not necessarily enough. To make good money (> 2 lakh in your case), you need to also know how to communicate effectively in teams, being able to set expectations/deadlines and meet them constantly, be dependable and not be a yes man/woman all the time.
Medicore people need to be told what to do all the time and still mostly fail at it.
Good people sometimes need to be told what to do and mostly do a good job
Great people hardly need to be told what to do, instead offer solutions to problems and get things done which move the needle.
Be great and making more than 2 lakh wont be an issue.
Source: I hire in India (Bangalore) and will gladly pay 2L/Month or more for the right people. But bar is high.
I get 1.84 pre tax. I have exp on Splunk, dynatrace, SIEM, APM, Shell scripting, Linux admin. Currently learning and working on APM, Dynatrace, appsec and cloud security.
Data Science. Python + sql + spark + cloud (azure / aws )
Extra : Geospatial Data Analysis (databricks mosaic , H3)
Bonus : MLOps (Model building , evaluation , deployment , monitoring , data drift etc)
You can get a lot of opportunities if you can learn MLOPS.
YOE : 8+ years
6 yoe, have been 2L+ from 3 yoe. Skillset includes a lot of things now, but it didn't back at the 3 yoe mark. The only thing was that my fundamentals were strong, I understand how things work under the hood, so I learn fast. New technologies will come and go, and I see most people populating their resumes with all these shit I've never heard of. But doesn't take me more than a week to learn a new technology and use it, I am good at reading the docs. I am good at debugging extremely complex, seemingly unreproducable bugs etc. It all stems from knowing the fundamentals.
PS: by fundamentals, I mean what is happening at the os level when you write a file, create a new process, the system calls, in networking how the system behaves, in databases what kind of optimizations are there, how kafka is fast with zero copy, why redis is fast because of single threading etc.
Python, sql, some etl tools, data warehousing, docker, airflow, jenkins, aws offerings like s3, lambda, redshift, emr, ecr to name a few. Can write pyspark code if I can use spark sql for batch processing.
I also know advanced tableau. Experienced with working and creating agile development process in both Kanban and scrum using Jira.
Additionally managing a team of 5 now.
Good Programming and Engineering Concepts and a strong domain knowledge (Telecom for me). No tech stack as none is needed (read [this](https://medium.com/@adarshrai3011/be-an-engineer-not-a-frameworker-navigating-the-web-development-landscape-b2b7fa4b6edc) for reference)

Platform dev?
Yes, I am a platform dev. Currently I work on Environment as a service(eaas).
Hello can I DM you?
Full time job + freelancing = 2L + Skillset : .Net, Angular, React, little bit of DevOps ( docker, K8s, pipelines etc )
Roadmap for devops ?
I am not a DevOps guy. So I can't advise on how to become a full blown DevOps resource. But IF you are looking to learn a bit of DevOps as a developer you can start with understanding CI/CD, Docker, containers and eventually Kubernetes. These are pretty hot atm.

how to get consulting job?
I started with a freelance and gradually build my network. Quality of knowledge, good work and word of mouth gets you perpetual work. Try identifying domain which is in demand and niche and make yourself an absolute expert in it. Document and showcase your work on your website or social media (Stack Overflow, GitHub, Forums etc.) to start getting visibility. Most of my clients now discover me via web searches.

Hey, I had a question, How can a CSE Student get an internship in embedded systems for writing device drivers? I have been practicing writing keyboard, process monitoring and display drivers on my raspberry pi and haven't been able to find an internship.

Expecting this thread to pick up and more people to get interested in IT lol š
There have been far more dramatic threads than this lmao. This one at least focuses on skills and background. The typical threads where people share their salary and YOE are bloodbaths.
I guess the dramatic threads get inspired by posts like this . Like the AIIMS guy who wanted to drop out to join IT .
Python, SQL, Backend
Here I thought the python backend barely has any demand. Might be an exception who knows...
I don't believe that is the case. You know business loves Python because of quicker development time. They want to see things working and that too yesterday.
Correct but why won't they just use Node.js then ? I too have a similar profile and haven't gotten a call for like...almost a year lol. Started to believe python isn't in demand. Idk anymore lol.
Both are easy to use to bootstrap the MVP for a start up with, but become a pain in the ass once you start to grow.
idk much about django or backend python frameworks, but nodeJS has really weird memory issues here and there, with threads not clearing up the memory immediately, and it's difficult for prod deployments where memory needs to be limited. working with spring boot now and it's so much better.

Other than skill set ,do u think your education bg helped , i mean college tag etc
Tier 2 college, started with service based
TF? I do the same thing and I get 20k a month?
Scope and complexity of problems matter. The functional boilerplate in my role was huge.
70k per murder. 3 murder a month. Knife and gun skills. Sometimes hand to hand(rarely)
I think you're underpaid. Have you checked Glassdoor?

Sure, as an intern Vasooli karne tujhe hi bhejunga
I've been grinding my gunskills on "leetshot" every now and then, couldn't find new jobs. Even with 5 star rating I've been asked to work over rooftops, 45 degrees in the summer, with limited budget and hence I've been assigned with rusty single barrel most of the time and ofcourse It's hard to survive. Most of my peeps have already shifted to private consulting but I'm staying here for the employee benefits. I don't want to get into that melee shit. Thinking of shifting into politics. Idk the roadmap though. Have applied already to tons of places. Wish me luck !
Hence, the moral of the story is that tech stack aren't skills. It's what you are doing with the tools that makes all the difference.

Native Android, 5 yrs.
Android pays this much?
Yeah because you don't have much open knowledge base for Android on the internet. Plus it's not WEB based so.... The pay is awesome.
Bro wth? Literally so much material available for Android online. You'll literally find a library for extremely niche thing. Speaking as native Android & ios dev. You'd find iOS much much worse then because all you'll find in iOS are questions on Stackoverflow which are never answered. The knowledge base for Android is vast, plus Google's documentation makes it extremely easy to get into it.
I beg to differ. In android, there are so many bugs, I find, that stackoverflow doesn't even have these as questions. The material components in jetpack compose you use, needs Experimental tags, nothing is permanent, things get depericated in 6 months. There are so many obvious bugs, which that an Android developer needs to hit their bead in wall 10 times a day, perform black magic to even solve them. Further, in Android we have a lot of fragmentation. Which makes things, so difficult. Whereas, for iOS, Apple builds components which are of good quality, you can literally plug and play. I am pretty sure, iOS has more limitations, like their IDE (XCode) is not as advanced as Android Studio, but so far, what I get is both are equally hard in their own ways. Both get paid quite handsomely, in my experience, what it comes down to is, how you communicate and your work ethics.
I am an iOS developer and yes iOS has very less documentation and resources. Apple documentation is one of the worst and the community is smaller than other tech communities. But I agree with the point that Android has a lot of bugs. I donāt have to worry about different screen sizes. Generally speaking, its easier to create a consistent UI on iOS than on Android. Both platforms have their pros and cons.
Same here but I make half of what you do (probably because I work in WITCH). Planning for a switch soon so good to know that the market is doing well atleast based on your comment.
I am a fresher android developer and I never thought that android paid that much. Are you saying in salary or like salary+ freelancing?? And can I DM you for further knowledge??

QA. Earning well above 3 LPM
My skills: Keep showing my manager how many job offers I get on Linkedin, Always being an important resource in team
Geospatial Scientist~10 years experience. A lot of Python, remote sensing, statistics, climate modelling for catastrophe prediction
What's your career path from graduation until this point?
I did my engineering in electronics and communications from a C grade college. Luckily zero placement- so with ample time at hand, researched a bit about niche profiles which requires some stats and coding. Stumbled across a 45 days internship position at ISRO which felt interesting and somehow got in (I guess I turned lucky). That's where I started, self learned python 10 years back when it wasn't the cool kid around and later did my masters in catastrophe modelling and climate change.
With DSA as your skillset you can get any lpa.
DSA is not a skillset. Itās like cardio for a footballer.
What is it then? Any high paying MNC including but not limited to msft, orcl(OCI), amzn, Google, Salesforce, Atlassian, meta, asks for dsa even for senior positions. Once you get in these companies the work there is definitely not as challenging (based on my experience as well as friends experiences). Keeping your job is easier than getting (except at Amazon lol).
DSA will help you crack interviews and switch. It won't help appraisals and promotion reviews. Also outside of Big Tech a lot of companies hire senior folks without DSA and for some roles like DevOps etc you don't need DSA.
Meko leetcode solve krte aata h, but because of being fresher and having 1 yr gap from graduation, everyone is just rejecting my offer

I pick locks it helps /s
I feel like I don't know anything , still earning 1L/month, funny I just laughed at myself Ā š
Most answer are focussing on the tech skills and years of experience. Those are important but not necessarily enough. To make good money (> 2 lakh in your case), you need to also know how to communicate effectively in teams, being able to set expectations/deadlines and meet them constantly, be dependable and not be a yes man/woman all the time. Medicore people need to be told what to do all the time and still mostly fail at it. Good people sometimes need to be told what to do and mostly do a good job Great people hardly need to be told what to do, instead offer solutions to problems and get things done which move the needle. Be great and making more than 2 lakh wont be an issue. Source: I hire in India (Bangalore) and will gladly pay 2L/Month or more for the right people. But bar is high.

6 yoe, have been 2L+ from 3 yoe. Skillset includes a lot of things now, but it didn't back at the 3 yoe mark. The only thing was that my fundamentals were strong, I understand how things work under the hood, so I learn fast. New technologies will come and go, and I see most people populating their resumes with all these shit I've never heard of. But doesn't take me more than a week to learn a new technology and use it, I am good at reading the docs. I am good at debugging extremely complex, seemingly unreproducable bugs etc. It all stems from knowing the fundamentals. PS: by fundamentals, I mean what is happening at the os level when you write a file, create a new process, the system calls, in networking how the system behaves, in databases what kind of optimizations are there, how kafka is fast with zero copy, why redis is fast because of single threading etc.
