TC as de seems very low in Seattle. I have ~2.5 yoe at a top 50 manufacturer and GE. Currently working at Amazon for 105 base +15k so +12k second year + 30 rsu(5 year vest). I’m decent at leetcode and am basically a sde at work since I code in Scala, Java, and Python along with knowing all the stuff a de is supposed to know sql, etl, data warehousing, basics of machine learning in python, etl technologies and databases, etc. How can I switch to software engineering? Will FAANG recruiters approve my resume for se roles?
Will I have to apply for se 1 or sde 1 positions?
Thank you.
