Looking for a change and not able to find any positions which can pay 20% more than my current compensation. Current role- Sr. Technical Architect with 18 years of experience. Current TC: 270k. Looking for minimum 20% increase. If you know any recruiter in the space, please share or dm me.

Yeah you are asking for a lot. Good luck.

Sr. TA is L8 which is Sr. Manager-level IC. To get to $325k TC, you're going to need $275k-ish salary at Big4/Accenture, or you're going to need mid-$200k's with a big RSU package that is only going to come from Bay Area tech. $250k - $275k TC is very doable right now but the types of roles going to that next level have been pretty few and far between.

I would recommend waiting for your L9 promo at Salesforce, or being more open to a lateral move that will gain you good experience you don't have and/or a good brand on your resume, then maybe 2H 2024 start looking again to jump to the next level.

Due to all of the layoffs, there's a lot more talent available than usual. 300k is probably pretty close to current market rates unless you are a CTA. I'd wait it out for the market to shift back in your favor.

I don’t know of many places that would be able to pay 320+ TC honestly. Unless it was heavily weighted on the performance bonus/BD side.

Here are the recruiting companies I've worked with in the past you could try.

- Salesforce Staffing
- R2
- Oliver Parks
- Elsdon Consulting
- Synapri
- TechOhana
- Third Republic
- Talent
- Connecting Experts

I think you are already close to the max unless you get into sales/delivery commissions. I am a CTA with 10 years experience, my TC is almost same as yours ... as a contractor. I would be interested to know of any better options as well but not in this market.

Good luck in your endeavors. It will be very tough to find a company willing to pay what you're asking in these market conditions. They could easily find another architect for much less than that.

This is a challenge while existing from SF particularly if you are in a Tech role - In my experience

Hi 👋🏻 Would love some support here - looking to build out a bonus structure for a Sales Engagement Mgr role - it isn't a typical sales role - this person will be closing deals but not necessarily securing leads. If they will be scoring leads, it will be organic via conferences, partnerships. Of course, we want to encourage and incentivize this person. Potentially giving then an extra 20-50k bonus potential. How do I build this out? Any suggestions or examples would be super helpful. Thank you!!
