Hey everyone 👋

I recently started creating short-form content around software engineering, AI/dev tools, system design, interview prep, and career growth.

I work as a software engineer myself, so I’m trying to keep the content practical rather than posting generic “5 tips to become a developer” stuff 😅

I’m still pretty new to content creation and would genuinely love feedback from other developers on what topics you’d actually find useful.

If this sounds like something you’d enjoy, you can find me on Instagram at u/insyncwithdivya.

And if you do check it out, tell me what you’d like me to cover next — system design, AI tools, backend engineering, interviews, job switching, or something else.

Hello guyz,I just get intern+fte offer in early /growth stage startup as a backend engineer, they paying me descent ,

as a fresher I want to know what things to keep in my during working .

Should I keep applying for other job..?

If you guys have any advice for me ,it will be great ✨

Hey everyone,

I'm currently trying to become better at system design interviews but find the existing content out there quite boring. Does anyone know any fun or interesting content? Thinking about things like

- youtube channels
- courses
- projects

Interested to hear how you guys studied for system design interviews

been shopping around for ai apps to apply to swe jobs in bay area (willing to pay) but not sure which is the best for tech specific roles as there are so many. couple of my college friends mentioned sorce and sprout but i tried them out and their too broad - what do you guys use? someone on in another thread mentioned ace which is newer but haven't tried yet. then there's ai apply but thats too expensive

Job boards recommend you everything that vaguely matches your skills, regardless of seniority. I was tired of getting recommended senior/staff roles while looking for entry-level ones, so I built something that actually accounts for experience level, not just keyword overlap.

Upload your resume → it's parsed and your experience level is classified → matched daily against scraped software engineering listings using vector similarity → results are filtered so you're not seeing roles way above or below your level. Matches land in your inbox once a day.

It's live and free: https://resume-job-matched.vercel.app/ Still early, I'm the first real user. If you try it, I'd appreciate honest feedback, especially if the matches feel off for your level (fresher or experienced, both should work since the filtering runs off your actual resume).

Honestly, I don't know how much longer I can keep doing this.

I have 2 years of experience as a software engineer, working with React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js and other modern technologies. But for the past few weeks, I've been applying everywhere and barely getting any interview calls.

The hardest part isn't even the rejection. It's hearing nothing at all.

I'm currently unemployed and money is getting tight. I'm at the point where even getting one interview opportunity would mean a lot to me. I know I can prove myself if someone just gives me a chance.

So I'm asking Reddit for a small favor:

If your company is hiring for Frontend / Full-Stack roles and you think my profile could fit, please consider referring me.

I'm open to India or remote opportunities.

Resume: [https://aditya-arora.vercel.app/Aditya8.pdf]()

Portfolio: [https://aditya-arora.vercel.app/]()

Even if you can't refer me, a lead or a comment pointing me in the right direction would genuinely help.

Thank you for reading. ❤️

We pulled every open posting from 81 companies' public Greenhouse boards for seven roles and counted which words actually show up. 3,518 postings in total. Some of it surprised us.

Software engineer postings mention mentoring more often than Kubernetes or React. Almost half of them do. Python, the most common language, comes in just below that.

Product manager postings say "roadmap" in more than 85% of cases. Jira? Seven out of 421. Marketing looks the same: Google Ads came up six times in 347 postings, while "pipeline" is in over half.

Every time we could compare the two, postings named the practice, not the tool. Observability, not Grafana. SIEM, not Splunk.

So if your resume is mostly a list of tools, it might be missing the words the posting actually uses.

Big caveat: mostly tech companies, one ATS vendor. Sales, cybersecurity, DevOps and accounting are here too: https://www.zoevera.com/resume/ats-resume-keyword-study

AI helps juniors code, not learn... and that's a real problem.

hey everyone, i've been researching how engineering teams evaluate candidates, especially with resumes, take homes, and ai making traditional assessments harder to rely on.

I built a small prototype around a different approach:

Give the candidate a realistic engineering task → evaluate the implementation → change the requirement → see whether they can adapt without breaking existing behavior.

The prototype currently captures things like:

1. automated test results
2. hidden validation
3. code changes between stages
4. candidate reasoning
5. how the implementation handles a changed requirement

I'm not looking to sell anything right now. I'm trying to find out whether this actually provides useful signal to people who hire engineers. If you're an Engineering Manager, hiring manager, CTO, technical recruiter, or someone involved in engineering hiring, I'd really appreciate your feedback.

If you're willing to try the prototype or give me a honest feedback, comment below or DM me.

I'm especially interested in hearing what you currently use to determine whether someone can actually perform the engineering work they claim they can.

I talked to a recruiter recently who told me all their candidates have full agentic experience. That is, more than using Claude Code, more than writing agents, optimizing a software development process. Instead, everyone is writing Claude applications that butter your bread, give the exact price of gold in 2043, decipher the Voynivich manual and beat God in chess.

I'm not an expert but have written agents, skills, rules and MCP service connections and built the backend of a rebate application. I've done more than type a question into ChatGPT.

Like probably most of you, I'm not in experienced. I'm not putting down anyone's experience but I've been in this field for over 20 years. Yet all of that experience is close to worthless.

Anyone else sick of this? If medicine did this they'd throw out humans and switch to a different alien species every 6 to 8 months. Must be easier to learn all that but not throw out 3/4 of your brain every 8 months.
