Best way to maximize compensation

I am in the US for a maximum of 4 years and my aim is to maximize earnings, not to build relationships in a company etc. With that in mind, should I look for roles in startups or larger brands which will give me stock, or a pre-ipo for RSUs? What is the best strategy?

Jump every 4 years and hopefully get a promotion during the switch

To truly maximize for your totality of 4 years regardless of future earnings. Leetcode hard and jump to a new company each year and take in that sweet sign on bonus.

This. Each time you switch make sure you have multiple offers at hand so you can negotiate. Try to interview with a different subset of companies each time
