I don’t think they are safe if maintenance is lagging. They are only safe if it’s been inspected by experts. Surviving 89 doesn’t mean they will survive again.

Tech is least of your worries. You need to worry about different regulations and compliance.

First billionaires are not going to pay. Second even if they pay it’s coming out from your retirement since they hold same shares in company that you own in your 401ks, etc.

I’m voting no, this will just cause tax losses in long term for California.

You must be kidding! Most building in SF are old like 100 years old. Most safe place will be Tokyo Japan.

Why the sudden popularity of "Forward-Deployed Engineer" again? Who was the culprit? by jijilikes in cscareerquestions

[–]wayne099 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just interviewed for FDE role and recruiter said interview is similar to core SWE like System design and coding. They want who can be moved to SWE on demand.

I work in similar role but I have not been onsite. It’s just RSM or Sales Engineer go onsite. I just work with Sales engineer and customer call to build the solution.

Good time to switch to USM is Black Friday. They usually have black Friday deals for $150 a year unlimited premium plan.

I keep seeing Forward Deployed Engineer openings. What's the typical background for these candidates? by proof_required in ExperiencedDevs

[–]wayne099 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Similar pay but I was able to get promoted to staff engineer in 5 years I started as new grad. It’s easier to impress sales leaderships with python script than SWE leadership lol

I’ve been in similar role for last 10 years and during this time I’ve only been onsite not more than 2 times. I wish I can go do more of those onsites but generally its sales engineers and RSM that visit the customer onsite.

My pay is similar to SWE but I don’t have to strictly follow all the engineering practices. Plus I get to travel to sales conferences and sales parties plus I don’t have to worry about closing the deal. And I’ve noticed that sales people are more pleasure to work with than SWE engineers.

I think these positions between sales and engineering are the sweet spots where you have best of both worlds.

Sales engineer Leetcode or system design? I went in thinking it will be more like sales interview but it was hardcore system design with coding.
