Seattle people, what cars do you have? 🙂
Asking for a friend. Anyone know whether their company is hiring ME in the SD area? ~5 YOE w/ Masters. TC: 280
Defence/military should be good there
Stop with this stupid asking for a friend. Is your friend that incapable to come here and ask? Jesus Christ
When did ME with 5 Yoe start getting paid 280k per year? Which company is he currently working for ?
ME Masters, 5 yoe and they want 280 tc in San Diego? That is unlikely to happen.
Anyone knows what is the highest TC one can get for 8 years of software experience ?
Probably in billions like Mark Zuck, if it’s all about highest TC. Or do you mean top 10%?
Hey Kyle
Lol I was actually asking for a friend. Blind etiquette is TC or GTFO, no? So I threw a number in there
Sorry. Didn't mean to jump all over you. Just trying to fight the Blind salary craziness. For an ME it would be more useful to list an industry (defense, medical, contract design) and a general area (design, manf, quality, analysis). There's more specialization than in SW, and the pay is generally not as high. The industry and specific area have a lot of effect on potential salary.
Thanks. Design and manufacturing for consumer devices (previously HP scanner division)
Small device stuff - medical products wouldn't be a bad way to go. Lack of FDA experience won't be an issue at just 5 yoe. Good if he has injection molding experience. Dexcom is hiring and is one of the bigger employers. Lots of smaller companies. Just saw a posting at Truvian, a small start up ruin by an ex-Illumina guy.
