I'm working on transitioning from SDET to product development in my company. I have experience - 3.5 in test automation, 1.5 in manual testing/automation
I want to transition to Full Stack and FAANG+ (Tier-1-2) in the future. What approach would you recommend?
1) Move to Front End inside the company, work there for 1 year. Then prepare for interviews for FrontEnd/FullStack.
2) Get a job in FAANG (in testing), then move to Full-Stack. How long this path might take? #engineering #software #swe

The transition might not be so easy in a faang company imho, they already have big line of candidates experienced with development waiting to get in.
