What level should I expect at FAANG? I have a PhD in CS from a world top 10 university. I did a PhD after working 3 years in the industry, and since my PhD, another 3 years have passed. Currently I'm a staff engineer in the semiconductor industry (hence no FAANG). On seniority: 50% I'm acting tech & team lead, scrum master, regularly negotiating with stakeholders, across multiple teams etc., 50% actively developing. Options: generalist SWE at Google /Facebook (Meta) or embedded SWE at Meta.
How much would my tech stack and language be a factor in getting selected in faang or good product based companies?
I'm asking from getting my resume selected to getting an offer.
I read everywhere that only DSA and system design is needed, but I'm still concious about my tech stack.
YOE: 5 years
Tech stack: .NET backend and sql server
Language I'm comfortable with: C#

Anyone have suggestions for getting into FAANG companies? I’ve been a CD and Generalist for 15 years in NY/LA in post, advertising and vfx, with a handful of years in UI/UX and product development. Never thought it would be this hard to get in the door. Any help would be appreciated. Facebook (Meta) Apple Amazon Netflix Google

Yes, yes, yes. It’s called regulation. Somewhere between Europe and the US is a common-sense way to guide businesses to benefiting their customers and users, not just their shareholders.
Facebook, Amazon, Google. They all built extremely useful tools that billions use everyday. If they want to throw money at the best and brightest to develop means to reach more users, that's their prerogative.
