Hi everyone, I recently impacted by the Alexa laid off.. and looking for referrals to QAE or SDET jobs. Preferably Netflix or Oracle please. YOE: 2 years Thanks in advance for your time #laidoff #jobhunt
Don’t put QA in your profile. SDET is fine but make sure work is SWE level otherwise you will suffer badly.
SDET doesn't have any future ?
SDETs who work like a QA will have no future honestly. Folks who can’t code never had a strong future.
@OP, my neighbors are SDETs in Amazon , titled tools and automation engineer. Makes a lot of $$$, has an amazing WLB , RTO is on will. I am told they have been SDETs their entire career , and have always had excellent comp. I now wonder whether I should switch to QA while I slog as a dev everyday
Lol SDETs who make $$$ are mostly work like a developer and platform engineers. It’s an absolute awesome role depending on the company and culture.

What happens when most of your team is Indian?
OMG, you’re too young to commit yourself to a lifetime of testing. What’s wrong with you? Get a SWE job somewhere.
So are you going to give them an interview for an SWE role or are you just here to sneer at OP, Mr “Management”?
What an absolute garbage comment. SWE job involves a huge amount of testing. Microsoft Devs do not it because they are mediocre but that doesn’t happen in other companies.
