Hi All, I am interviewing TPM roles in AWS security (Seattle office). I have 5 YOE working on similar skill sets and the role is a perfect shift for me. I should try for L5 or L6 and how much TC should try to negotiate? Any interview tips would be greatly appreciated as well!
Start with clarifying the role you're interviewing for, TPM usually stands for technical program manager.
Yes, its technical Program manager role
Not knowing your background, L5 is an easier option to get in, but on a lower TC. You should get promoted in about 2 years, but don't expect any substantial bump in TC. I don't know what L5s make, I'd guess something in low 200s.
