Who are these retards asking for dictatorship in India?
Any tips on courses for someone trying to earn 210k+ as a security engineer ? Can also be software security, application security, dev sec ops. I’m pretty decent in Python and also have experience in machine learning. I’m at the point where I just want to maximize income and grow within a great company. I have 9 years experience. #square #apple #google #meta #block #airbnb
Consider getting a CISSP or OSCP certs. Practice secure code reviews, threat modeling, do some leetcode and apply to FANG.
Yeah I was debating the meet code route but mastering over 600 algorithms for an interview seems wild lol. Curious how others get through that mastery
For SecEng you should be solid in easy problems and maybe mediums to be safe. FWIW I’ve never been asked LC in an interview.
You want to make 300k? Learn to find vulns and document them well.
So threat hunt?
Vulnerability discovery. Threat hunting is something entirely different.
Base or total comp?
Base. Would want more for total comp
Just interview at companies that pay a lot for their security team, for example Snap. It looks like Okta pays a bunch, too. I have 0 CVEs and certs and vulns, just work experience. 8 yoe. TC ~500k
8 YOE here as well. Thank you very much, noted will do. What’s your title if you don’t mind me asking ?
Security engineer
Which city are you in?
SoCal area.
