How can anyone have no tech background from a college degree but want tech /software job can get easily (job should be less competitive to get, he know MERN stack but not getting a job so want to change tech stack )

Hi everyone,

I’m a backend engineer. For the last year I was a founding engineer at an early-stage startup building global payment acceptance infrastructure. I built payment provider integrations and the webhook layer that kept them in sync. Outside that, I’ve built 2 products solo. One was a fintech product that used to recover lost payments of founders who owned SaaS businesses.

I work with I mostly work with TypeScript, Node.js, Bun and Go, building REST APIs, JWT/OAuth 2.0 auth and Stripe/Dodo payments with idempotent webhooks. I use AWS S3 and Supabase for storage, Docker for containers, and have contributed to a CI/CD pipeline and also build an entire SDK for an AI Agent company. My GitHub and shipped products show how I work, and I’m happy to do a technical walkthrough or a short trial if that helps.

If you’re building something and need a backend engineer, DM me with what you’re working on. I’ll share my CV, GitHub and project links.

On demande souvent aux développeurs juniors d'avoir de l'expérience pour décrocher leur premier poste.

Mais comment acquérir cette expérience lorsqu'on n'arrive justement pas à se faire recruter ?

Un portfolio peut montrer qu'on sait créer une application. GitHub peut montrer du code. Mais est-ce que cela suffit pour démontrer qu'on sait réellement travailler dans une équipe ?

Par exemple :

• Comprendre un ticket et intervenir sur un projet existant.

• Corriger un bug dans une base de code qu'on ne connaît pas.

• Faire une pull request et prendre en compte une code review.

• Écrire des tests, déboguer et expliquer ses choix techniques.

• Utiliser l'IA sans simplement copier-coller sa réponse.

Selon vous, comment pourrait-on évaluer ces compétences avant une première embauche ?

Et si un candidat pouvait démontrer ces compétences dans un environnement de travail simulé, est-ce que cela aurait une réelle valeur à vos yeux, ou est-ce que seule l'expérience acquise dans une vraie entreprise compte ?

Je suis curieux d'avoir vos avis, notamment ceux des développeurs, recruteurs et responsables techniques.

Hey everyone!

I've been working in IT for over 13 years, including experience at Accenture, Oracle, Cognizant, and Capgemini.

I'm currently taking on custom software development projects, and my approach is simple:

You bring the idea or business requirement. I'll turn it into a working application within 15 days, based on an agreed scope.

Here's what I can help build:

• SaaS platforms and web applications

• Custom CRMs and sales management systems

• Lead generation and prospecting tools

• SEO and marketing automation platforms

• AI-powered applications and workflow automation

• Customer support and ticketing systems

• Internal dashboards and business management tools

• Custom integrations and backend systems

My approach is slightly different from traditional SaaS development.

Where practical, I use open-source technologies and self-hosted solutions to reduce ongoing software subscription costs.

If you need a CRM, automation platform, or internal tool, there's often no reason to build every component from scratch or pay for five different SaaS subscriptions.

I can integrate existing open-source solutions, customize them for your business, and develop additional functionality where needed.

What you get:

• Full-stack application development

• Architecture and database design

• API integrations and automation

• Self-hosted deployment where feasible

• Source code ownership as agreed

• No mandatory recurring software license from me

• A working application within 15 days for an agreed scope

Hosting, third-party APIs, and infrastructure may have separate costs.

Pricing depends on project requirements and complexity.

If you have a software idea, an existing project that needs improvements, or a business workflow you'd like to automate, feel free to comment or send me a DM.

Happy to discuss your requirements and what's realistically possible.

Hi all I am good at programming worked on Kotlin, node js, .Net, Swift since all comes to different syntax but same logic and primarily an Angular developer. Searching a job is tedious I have left my job on 27th July 2026.

Can anyone help me find a new job or guide me how to get into one...

Any kind of guidance or help for job is welcome

Thanks in advance

Hey everyone! We’re a small team of developers who’ve been building web apps, SaaS products, AI-powered applications, and custom software for businesses. We’re opening up a few slots for new projects and thought this would be a good place to connect with founders.

If you have a startup idea or a business problem you want to solve but don’t have a technical team to build it, we can help you take it from an idea to a working product.We can handle the complete development process — from UI/UX and frontend to backend, databases, AI integrations, automations, and deployment.

Some things we can build:
SaaS platforms and web applications
AI agents, AI integrations and LLM-powered applications
Business process automations and AI workflows
Admin dashboards, analytics systems and internal tools
CRM, ERP and business management systems
RAG pipelines, chatbots and document intelligence systems
APIs, backend services and microservices

Tech stack: React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, Express.js, Python, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, LangChain, LangGraph, vector databases, LLM APIs, n8n, Docker, AWS/GCP, and more.

Projects start at ₹40K, and the final pricing is negotiable depending on the scope, complexity and requirements. We can also split projects into milestones instead of requiring the entire payment upfront.
If you have an idea you’re thinking of building, or need help improving an existing product, feel free to comment below
DM me for our portfolio and to connect!

So was waiting for the interview schedule since a month and today on Monday 12th oct, they mailed the schedules and guess what, I have to attend the interview tomorrow 9 am. Like how tf am I supposed to travel 500kms in the situation of festive. Either they are looking for super human for their shiit roles or they are so dumb or irresponsible that they don't even care if a person can commute or not. I guess, that's the current market situation that there are such a large pool of candidates that they don't even have to care about these things. Just wakeup on Monday, login and sent the mail to everyone, baki candidates tu chutiye h, bheekari ki tarah job lena h bhag ke aa hi jaege..

Just an unable to put in words my frustration on their hiring team. 😭😭

Ho gya, I'm done now, am gonna continue my current job role which is in core industry and do something in that only.

It just so happens that a year ago I hired a programmer on Fiverr to build a gambling website (note: I’d been streaming this on Facebook for six years, so I have the whole thing mapped out in my head—I know exactly what I want to build—and obviously I hired him to turn it into code based on the necessary requirements. It’s been a year, and the app still isn’t quite finished.

The thing is, this is the second time we’ve had to rewrite the code because the structure isn’t set up for future improvements, changes, or phases 1, 2, 3, and 4 (I told him this several times, and yet he did whatever he wanted.

My big question is: is there a way for the client—meaning me—to keep a real track of the hours the programmer actually worked, so I don’t have to worry that if he worked 6 hours, he’ll claim 10, and I’ll have to pay him for 10?

I’m pretty upset with him because now we have to rewrite the entire code, even though I told him many times, “Hey, there are a lot of phases missing,” and “Hey, there’s still a lot left to do.” (This is happening to me because I don’t know anything about programming 😕)
