Need some advice here.I am a fullstack developer with 5 yoe in Angular and Python.My aim is to crack FAANG companies.Now I got an offer from HSBC in a credit risk model monitoring role using Python.It is close to a data engineer role.
My question is that will it be a good idea to shift from development role to a model monitoring role if I want to move to FAANG in the future even for an ML role?Or does FAANG not prefer people who are not in core development roles?Amazon Google Microsoft Adobe Citi Barclays Bank of America

I don’t really think any of us can answer this for you. Really depends on your firm and your opportunities with it on whether this is the right answer. If you love the work, I would have transparent conversations with your leadership on next steps.
In terms of B4, all B4 have FAAS capability - both in Assurance, which really tend to be more consulting type practices, and Consulting in Finance type practices. Again not sure how realistic your jump is firm where you are at that level but it maybe worth exploring, even if it is just to rule it out.
Thanks for the reply. The upper levels at this firm are not focused on developing the next class of partners and most below manager level are checked out, so not great environment. I’ve tried to have conversations but they are very much not interested in having any feedback conversations (performance or development) so feels like a losing battle.
The partner group has a death grip on BD and I’ve been trying to get involved for 2 years. Big 4 (last time I tried to change firms back to big 4) didn’t want to hire an SM without much BD experience (as I’m getting new clients - I always land and expand well).
I’ll keep doing the work and all, but really was curious if it would be a bad move to go to a smaller advisory firm that I know I’d be most technical at, if I knew going in I’d know more accounting than most of the partners (obviously less on running the business so not trying to be cocky - I’d be humble)
