This is a feeling, may be silly to others but I am very much passionate about it.
I belong to a tier 3 college and I have always worked as a full stack engineer in the last 9 years, I got a lot of recognition from my clients and I have worked with service based MNCs and big 4 networking firms and a lot of clients like top tech banks, airlines etc but I never got a chance to work on large scale applications like Amazon, Netflix or Hotstar. So, my desire is to work with an Architect, as an Assistant of the Architect to handle those applications which scale at millions of users.
Is there anyway anyone knows that I can get such an opportunity where I will architect and monitor those real life apps, my life is not complete without such experience being a Software Engineer?
“Architect” mostly nowadays it’s a title. “Architect” as a job role is pretty much handled by Staff+ and beyond in big tech.
So if you move to big tech at L6 and beyond you will be an “architect”. But if you are imagining as an architect go entire product , then think about working with very early stage startups or startups who have raised growth round..
Hi Sir, my career has begun as a full stack engineer in a startup, it was a zoom like video conferencing multi platform app(web majority, Android and Iphone). I have been involved in end to end delivery of the product including design, modeling, ERD to development and deployment. So, I know most of the nitty gritty of a typical software development of a scalable software but the audience didn't cross more than 200 at a time.
Now if it comes to a product which varies org to org, only domain and its related knowledge remain aligned.
I may get L6, but working for a product like Amazon e-commerce app, uber or Google search is really a dream and matter of luck.
Appreciate your suggestion, I never know L6 is Architect like position. Thank you.
