How many number of experience is required for L5 engineer at Google? I know there is no formula and it varies a lot. My question is about average no of good experience. About me: I am working on making APIs for AI related functions. I deal with large scale cloud computing and Machine learning. I have 5 years of experience and MS degree. Thanks.
L5 band is wide, 6 years to 20 years
Isn't L5 career level at Google, meaning no upper bound?
Yes, sorry by band I meant career level where you will find people with 6 to 20 years of experience when hired. At L5 there is no strict expectation to grow to L6 though.
I did not get L5 with 10 years of experience working on ML in major web search engine companies.
Then what did you get?
T4 naturally =( I think that I have more than enough relevant knowledge, skills and technical experience for T5, but something was missing. I think that I did not "act like T5". I might have looked too young, too bright-eyed, too nerdy, etc.
5 yrs will be L4
Ok. How much is required for L5 on an average?
Depends on quality of that experience. Roughly ~10 years
