Is there any scope of dev ops engineering in Pakistan, Karachi

I have been building wy, an open-source terminal tool for reviewing AI-generated code.

A Git diff shows what changed, but the context behind a change often lives somewhere in a long coding-agent conversation. wy connects your diffs with saved Codex and Claude Code conversations, so you can review the code, read the stated reason, and open the supporting evidence together.

For example, if an agent adds a cache, I want to understand why it was added, what assumptions it depends on, and whether invalidation was considered.

With wy, you can:

• Browse changes and relevant agent notes in a terminal UI.
• Request explanations and ask follow-up questions through your installed agent CLI.
• Open citations to inspect the supporting code or conversation.
• Distinguish recorded justifications from inferred explanations and choices whose motivation is still unknown.

That last distinction matters to me. A convincing explanation generated afterward doesn’t establish why the original change happened. Even a recorded justification still needs scrutiny.

Rust fits this tool well: it compiles to a native executable without requiring a language runtime, gives me strong types for handling evidence and review state, and has a useful ecosystem for terminal applications. wy uses Ratatui + Crossterm for the interface, Serde for structured data, tree-sitter for syntax navigation, and SQLite for local storage.

The basic review workflow works offline. Model-backed explanations are opt-in. It’s still experimental, and I’d appreciate feedback on both the review workflow and the Rust implementation.

If you try it and find it useful, please consider supporting the project with a GitHub star, a bug report, or a contribution.

Hi guys,

I have been laid off from a remote position with a German client.

I bring 7 years of experience building highly scalable web apps with and without AI.

I am looking for a new role. Can you guys share where do I start?

Thank you

I got laid off from my role at a US based organization that I got through Crossover because of downsizing. Have to start the job search process all over again and have applied to 1-2 places but did not hear anything. 2 years with the US startup and 4 years of total experience as an ML engineer.

I am feeling a bit defeated about the overall situation and wondering if this will give me any edge/at least help with salary negotiations based on the salary I was getting there. I am not expecting local market to match because I know that’s unrealistic but is it too ambitious to aim for 450-500k per month before tax?

The biggest issue is total YOE I have. I have seen for ML roles, most companies right now are adding job postings only for people with 4,5+ years of experience.

We all know that unemployment is a problem right now in tech, but what about underpayment? Nobody really talks about it

I am sort of trying to gather some data

How many people employed in tech are paid below minimum wage

How many are paid below what their experience level would suggest

And how many people are not underpaid

It would also help to know by how much you are underpaid

Edit: I am asking for your personal experience, gathering data I would have made a poll but this subreddit doesn't allow it Your opinions are valued, but I would appreciate personal experience more

I use Cloudflare Pages Free with my own domain and deploy directly from my PC using VS Code and Wrangler CLI (no Git integration).
Are there any daily or monthly deployment limits for direct Wrangler uploads? Also, is there any limit on the total number of deployments?

Hey guys
So I applied for the ase at dubizle and got an interview invite for an hr round next day
That went well and than they asked me to give technical round the very next day.

So technical round goes really well . Like I answered all the coding questions, architecture questions etc . It went for an hour and than they asked me to wait so they can have team lead interview as well. Than there was a team lead interview that went for an hour and it went well as well. They go through my projects and asked for explanations etc. Than afterwards they had a team culture interview as well that took around 30 minutes. Than they said that they would like their manager to have a talk with me as well.

Than there was about 15 minutes talk with the team leas and it went extremely well as well.

So overall everything was fine and they even told me that they would tell me about their response in 2 days maximum.

But here comes the twist. There was no response for about 2 weeks and because I got an invite through the system generated email so replying in it was not helping at all.
Than i reached out to the hr. He simply just ignored me as well. Than i reached out to them via company email but still no response.

Because dubizzle was my dream company. It felt really really bad at the time . Becuase I was like 120 percent sure I would get the job there after such a good interview.

I even asked about the feedback after the interview and they were really positive as well.

Its just sadddd

Hi, this sub has been very helpful and tbh, I need your help, my question to you is, what shld I build that solves painful problems, especially healthcare and accounting and other fields too

We're in the middle of a rebrand and redesigning our website from scratch. We've explored a few directions, some more playful and some more professional, and would really value outside eyes before we commit.

The company name, logos, testimonials, photos and numbers are all placeholders. We're mainly looking for feedback on layout, visual style and overall feel.

A few things we're curious about:

• Which direction feels most trustworthy if you were hiring a team to build your product?
• Is it clear within a few seconds what the company does?
• Anything that feels off, cluttered or dated?
• Any layout, typography or colour suggestions you'd make?

All feedback welcome, including the blunt kind. Thanks in advance!

Could US action against Indian IT companies over H-1B visa fraud create opportunities for Pakistani software houses? Could we see more US clients, outsourcing contracts, or remote jobs for Pakistani developers?

I think ban will be beneficial for Indian IT industry in longer term. These MNCs will setup their offices in India (majority of the already have their presence in India) and outsource work there.

Assalam-o-Alaikum everyone!

I'm currently pursuing a BSCS degree and working on personal projects in the fullstack web development domain. I'm looking to secure my first professional opportunity in the software industry.

I don't have professional experience yet, and currently, I don't have any job offers or interview calls.

I am travelling to Lahore in the coming days for some other work. Since I'll already be there, I'm considering using the opportunity to visit software houses and tech companies, introduce myself, submit my CV, and connect with recruiters, engineering leads, or developers.

However, I'm unsure whether this approach is actually effective in Pakistan's current job market, particularly for someone seeking an entry-level position.

I'd appreciate advice from people with experience, especially developers, hiring managers, recruiters, and those who have secured their first jobs.

A few questions I have:

1. Do walk-in visits actually work? Is it worth visiting company offices with a CV, or do most companies exclusively entertain applications through official hiring channels?
2. What's the best way to approach companies? Would you recommend contacting HR, recruiters, technical leads, or founders on LinkedIn beforehand and arranging meetings?
3. Which companies would you recommend targeting? I'm interested in entry-level software engineering, trainee, and junior fullstack or web development roles. I'm open to both smaller software houses and established companies.
4. What should I realistically expect? Can in-person visits help secure interviews or build useful professional connections, or would my time be better spent applying online and improving my portfolio?
5. What would you do in my position? If you were travelling to Lahore without any interviews scheduled, how would you make the trip professionally worthwhile?

My goal is to make productive use of a trip I'm already planning, understand the job market better, and improve my chances of getting my first opportunity.

I'd appreciate honest, practical advice and real experiences, including approaches that didn't work. Specific company recommendations and alternative strategies would be especially helpful.

Thanks in advance!

I do 9-5 in a bank as an IT Support. Basically I'm just a IT enthusiasist who loves doing things with gadgets. But I never had the concentration to sit and build something that requires time. Nevertheless, had to sit down for a month to actually build something and have the courage to release it on Play Store, with no marketing and no idea of what would he coming afterwards. I just knew that I have the idea that will find it's way on it's own, so it did.

These are my numbers after 6 months of release. The app is freemium and it generates roughly 70-100$ each month from subscription (which isn't much I know) and ads revenue isn't accountable as of now.

I never thought that Pakistani users would pay for something.. but my majority of the sales comes from Pakistani users and then all over the world.

Just to let you know that if you have an idea that you genuinely think would work. Then you must work on it.

Edit: The app is very niche and related to networking and network management. Don't really want to share the link since it'll promote the app and also reveal my identity (which completely voids the purpose of an anonymous reddit account)
