You say you "build websites for one of the top 5 most trafficked website" at a FAANG. Would you mind sharing more about what you've done?
I've worked at two FAANG companies, and I can't think of a single software engineer I've met who would describe their job as 'build websites' because:
1. They would usually use words like 'system', 'application' or 'service' instead of 'website'.
2. Almost no IC at a FAANG builds a significant site alone. They're often responsible for certain parts or features.
3. Few folks work on websites (plural). e.g. the folks at FB working on the advertiser dashboard/UI probably never work on FB marketplace etc.
Perhaps you have scope to improve the way you describe your work, and this might help you get more responses and opportunities.
