I'm 28M with a background in banking and some experience in retail. ZERO formal computer science background. But I've always been intrigued by tech, and lately I've been seriously thinking of becoming a software developer. I know it's not too late, and I'm confident I can learn, but I don’t know where to begin. What are the first steps or beginner-friendly courses I should take to start this journey? Should I go with bootcamps, self-learning platforms, or get a diploma?

Does anyone else feel like a diversity interviewee? Like they interview locals but just for the sake of it. I have evidences of X countrymen hiring their own.

In Singapore, I’ve noticed that titles like “Senior” or “Lead” in the tech world can mean wildly different things depending on the company. I once met a “Tech Lead” who had less than two years of experience—why is this so? Anyone care to explain if this is a Singapore only thing? And I guess in the tech world, are titles overrated, or do they really impact how you’re seen in the industry? 🤔

"Can you just add one small feature?" and next thing you know, you're rewriting half the codebase. 😩 The life of a developer in SG is all about Jira, constant bug fixes, and never-ending user acceptance testing (UAT). Clients want magic, but they don't always understand the effort or the timelines involved. How do you manage expectations while avoiding burnout? Would love to hear how others navigate this balancing act between delivering quality work and taking care of your own well-being.

Its been half year since I apply to SG Software Engineer role. Mostly was job posting expired / no longer accept candidates. A few has responded criteria no match on work sponsorship. May I ask whats happening in SG Software Company? Or does it related to MOM rules changed? I need some advice.

I’m working as a software designer, just finished my first year of working in this company but honestly, I already feel like this job isn’t for me even after spending 4 years studying and getting my degree. Not sure if it’s the company or the role itself, but I just don’t enjoy it. Anyone else felt this way? How did you make the switch to something else without wasting all that study time? What career paths did you consider after? Really need advice on what to do next.

i wanna moving into consultancy instead of just being another developer in a company. How many years of experience do you guys think we really need before companies take you seriously as a consultant? And is the pay actually that much better, or does it just depend on how many clients you can get?

Sometimes I feel more like a firefighter than a developer. Our product team always throws us new feature requests without giving proper specs. No user stories, no detailed flow. Then expect us to roll it out in a week. When something breaks, we get blamed for not “thinking ahead”. Honestly, it’s draining. I want to build quality code, but it feels like I’m always rushing just to keep up. Is this just how startups work or is there a better way to manage this?
