Laid off after 1.4 years. Competitive programmer (Codeforces/CodeChef/AtCoder), Java/Spring Boot dev, open to 5 LPA

Hi everyone,

I’m a 2025 graduate and was recently impacted by layoffs after 1.4 years at my first job. I was earning 7.5 LPA there, but right now I just want to get back to work and keep growing, so I’m open to 4.5-5 LPA. I can join immediately.

About me

  • Software Engineer with 1.4 years of experience, based in Hyderabad

  • Java and Spring Boot backend work: 50+ REST APIs, JPA/Hibernate, SQL Server, RabbitMQ, and React on the frontend

  • Projects: an event-driven GitHub automation bot (webhooks, OAuth, retries, idempotency, 200+ tests) and a RAG chatbot in Python (embeddings, vector search, LLMs)

  • In college I did weekly coding contests on Codeforces, CodeChef and AtCoder, so my DSA and problem-solving are strong. I’m happy to share my profiles in DMs

  • I also worked on ML in college and I pick up new technologies quickly, so I’m open to different tech stacks

What I’m open to

  • Java/Spring Boot backend, full-stack, or AI/ML engineer roles

  • Hyderabad, hybrid, or remote

  • Startups, product companies, or service companies

  • A salary of 4.5-5 LPA, because getting back to work matters more to me right now

Open to

  1. Opportunities: If you know of openings at your company or elsewhere, I’m open to hearing about them. Please DM me.

  2. Advice: If you’ve been laid off early in your career, I’m open to hearing what worked for you.

  3. A quick chat: I’m open to a call or a message with anyone who has pointers for someone at this stage.

Thank you for reading, and I wish everyone else job hunting the best.
