As you are still early in your career, I would suggest to go for Amazon SDE role. You will get good TC and plenty of options in future with Amazon on your resume.
SDE any day
Why?
What everyone else said. If you go SDE now, you can always go back to Salesforce. If you go Salesforce now, it'll be a much harder path to SDE later.
what does a salesforce developer do ? like using their apis ?
SWE. Your career will thank you
take the sde offer.. salesforce developer is a dead end i see lot of people struggling by sticking to sf dev role. Lack of pay growth and career opportunities
Isn’t the whole point of the computer science diploma to get into software design, at the elite levels once you’ve got a decade of experience afterward? Get better career advice. Blind has already set you on the right path but talk to some people who’ve made it to high TC in real life.
SDE will open more opportunities in the long term. Though Amazon's offer is for SDE1, generally with this year of xp in the SDE ladder they offer SDE2. But it's a good opportunity if you want to shift gears. Note that work life balance will take hit at Amazon
