    What do you mean by moving and inter-dependent parts ? I read doc (if any), talk with different people, although it's none in my team (T_T), then identify different services or pro…

    Just because you haven't worked in a team that requires those skills doesn't mean they aren't valuable. In my old team, I had to come up with a coupon distribution logic based on c…

    So if you are just doing normal stuff, then why should anyone pay competitive TC ? That's just a normal dev, right ? What's so special or talented about you ? Companies that pay hu…
