I work in customer facing role (CSM) in B2B SaaS. My partner (he works in applied AI) suggested that in the future, my people skill will be highly beneficial combined with tech skill (people who vibe code or use coding assistant still need to understand code) so he adviced me to learn coding. Perhaps not to deep like SWE but at least I understand the surface. What do you think?

Maybe learn cloud instead start with Azure or AWS fundamentals. Roles such as Business Analyst, Product Manager, Delivery Manager, Project Manager, Product Owner or even some Solution Architect roles are good career paths that don’t involve coding and are here to stay

Depends on where you want to go in the future. If you want to move away from customer-facing roles, then yes, you'll need to learn coding.

What he is suggesting is a viable career path that's different than the one you are on. If you want to be able to have options down the road amd see yourself enjoying learning to code, go for it.

That said, the future isn't necessarily going to be full of people-friendly coders and little else, it's just an optional career path for you. Feel free to dive into datacenters, networking, power management, or anything else that suits your fancy to open options in other avenues.

Friends, I have 11+ years of experience and have been selected for a L5 Non Tech PM role. Amazon is offering me 24 base + 8 SB + 200 RSUs. I will have to relocate to South India (from Delhi) for this and probably the offer may not cater to my expenses.

Clawback clause in current contract: been in role for over 2 yrs, it was an internal move that required relocation. Relocation was approved shortly after (over 2 yrs ago) but covid meant the actual move and start of my contract with new subsidiary was delayed, I was paid by the previous subsidiary meanwhile. I got small relocation package. Would internal move be subject to a buy-out/clawback clause if I leave now and if yes, is it time in role or time under new contract? Any experience? Thanks!

- Work with the recruiter + apply for jobs on my own?
