Hi, I recently received offer from Amazon after clearing 8 rounds of interview for Level 6 senior Business intelligence engineer role(NYC), TC : 230K/ YOE : 15 in Data Engineering & Business Intelligence Field. the offer seems to be low. Can I requesting hiring manager move me under Data engineer instead of BIE seems BIE is kind of lower grand then DE. Any suggestions? #Amazon
Data engineering tends to be harder than BI. Data engineering is similar to a SWE, but rather than focusing on services, youâre constantly modifying data. BI is like using Tableau dashboards.
In my current role, basically I do both data engineering and building dashboard and building end to end pipeline, but here here seems to be very less ownership on data side and purely in visual portion. Whether it is possible to move out of BIE after few month in team??
What I'll be the different in TC level 6 BIE vs DE??
Even if they don't have opportunity immediately, switching internally is easy. You can start looking for roles easily 6 months after you join, if not earlier.
Join as BIE and work to acquire skills to move into DE. Everyone knows about the pay delta so this is common at Amazon. You are right this seems on the lower side so ask for the max of base - 185k last I heard.
Yes max is 185K sure I'll request for the same, thanks for guidance
Itâs considered a high standard offer. My initial offer in late 2020 for Sr BIE was around 230 after getting unanimous strong hire. Was able to negotiate up to 260 (165 base + 95 first year) before I declined, they needed to get few approvals for exceptions and I had competing offers.
For which location?
NYC
Yes BIE is lower grand tham DE.
