a lead engineer
After Switch, Feeling lost in a career. Specially after working in good companies, MNCs, Captives etc.
I have 10 YOE
I joined a fintech company as a senior lead developer (java, cloud) in October 24
CTC 37.
Everything is good here. Eg . Worklife balance,
work from office/home , stability, project manager.
only issue is java work is less and stuck in Financial product where we need to deploy test and mostly do configuration changes.
This is my 5th company. What would be the advice?
is that okay to change comapny in 5-6 months?
how to proceed ahead with the career ?

5th company in 10 years isn’t bad....just try to stick it out for at least a year to avoid the ‘job hopper’ tag. Are there upskilling options internally?

[cerealkiller](username) Why is job hopping always painted as negative?

Is there any scope for automation in the configuration tasks you’re handling? That could bring back some technical involvement.

[greatking](username) 5-6 months is a short time, but if this role is not aligned with your aspirations, you might start exploring options quietly while continuing to work here.

Since this is your 5th company, recruiters might start seeing you as a job hopper. Staying for at least a year might help maintain a stable profile.
