How do you find these positions?
- bluefirebrand 1y agoI would also like to know I've never worked in Silicon Valley but every company I've worked for is infected with Silicon Valley brainrot
- dehugger 1y agoLook for large companies dealing in physical goods. I work on warehouse software for a company selling motorcycle helmets and bbqs. Its a great intersection of tech and industry.
- bluefirebrand 1y agoThat's pretty cool. I would expect most of that sort of company to be buying off the shelf products these days but I guess some still roll their own Thank you for the advice, I really appreciate that you took the time to do that. Very kind of you
- dehugger 1y agoOnce you hit scale there are very few off the shelf solutions. Every major application is going to have some degree of customization involved. Personally, I maintain a legacy codebase of a propietary application running several distribution centers. New feature requests, bug fixes, integrations, ever-changing business requirements mean its worth having staff on payroll to do it, as the contractor costs to do so are exorbitant.
- scarface_74 1y agoThere are around 3 million software developers in the US, most working for regular old enterprise companies in most major metropolitan areas in the US. All of the job boards have openings for those positions. I spent my entire career from 1996-2020 working locally in Atlanta - 7 jobs in all - until my last three jobs that have been remote.
- eikenberry 1y agoWhich job boards? Monster is out of business and Indeed is so flooded with garbage that it is mostly useless.
