[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seasoned software engineer here. A 60-70k salary for a Sr. software engineer irrespective of clearance = hiring a very green Jr. software engineer lusting a new title.

They won't produce at industry level expectations of  a Sr. software Engineer at that salary unless they are indentured servants or you aren't paying a fair wage.

These are highly stressful engineering jobs where you get thrown curve balls all day long. No one with experience who could actually succeed in this role would do it for less than $150 in DC. Market rate for this skill set. Silicon Valley, quadruple that.[/quote]

[b]anonymous claims, just like the HHI many threads on this board.

name one private company, no defense or clearance required, that pays 150K for senior software developers, just one please[/b]

I hire people all the time.  H1Bs have taken over the non-gov market for software.  Our company used to hire 200 IT college graduates yearly, this year we hired 25.  and we are 20% bigger than 10 years ago.   What we do have is conference rooms filed with Cognizant and Hexaware and TCS.

at 60K to 70K for java developers that have a senior software developer title.[/quote]

Deloitte, PWC, BAH to name three big box private shops. Hiring an IT college graduate is not the same as a SR. Software Engineer with 12+ years under their belt. $150k is actually low for a specialized SME with or without clearance. AI proven experience, not just a single undergrad course, a hot commodity right now.

I see inflated titles with presumed crap salaries across the beltway. They bring me in to clean up the mess of a band of newbies architecting software which doesn't scale. It's always the young babes with zero experience using newest tech creating spaghetti. Everything should be JSON, etc...[/quote]
