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?Or does FAANG not prefer people who are not in core development roles?Amazon Microsoft Google Adobe PwC EY Citi Barclays JPMorgan Chase

Salesforce can keep a contractor for up to two years in a single role before they have to hire them or release them. I had a five month contract that was extended twice to take me to a year in a half in a contractor role before I was hired.
A lot of Salesforcers started out as contractors—so I think it’s a great way to get your foot in at the company. I’d talk to the hiring manager about timelines and headcount if you’re concerned about the longevity of the role. Good luck!
How did you find a contract position at SF? I'm an independent looking to do the same.
