Got an offer for SDE position after interviewing for SDE2. Is it possible to negotiate for Uplevel considering I am already at L5 equivalent at eBay? YOE: 2 + masters TC: 180
If you interviewed for an SDE II position and they gave you an offer for a I, that means the people on your loop have agreed that they believe you don't meet the Amazon bar for an SDE II. I'm wrong often, but I don't think you'll have any luck negotiating the level of the offer.
No offense but 2 YOE external SDE1 is not a down-level. That’s appropriate based on what I’ve seen. I’ve yet to see an external SDE2 hire with less than 4 YOE. With that said, you should aim for promotion in 1 year.
I guess you probably did good in algorithms but screwed up the design round. You cannot negotiate level. But, can negotiate base pay. Instead of coming at low L5 you can try for high L4
