Advice please
Hi guys,
I'm a software engineer from Morocco, and I recently started my first job at a startup that leverages AI to build a large SaaS platform aimed at helping companies with their recruitment process. The software is not live yet, so I can't share a demo with you.
I joined this company as a broke student with barely a penny, but now I'm doing a bit better for my age. Since it's a startup, they don't pay me very well, and the product is still in development. We expect to launch in 1 to 2 months. (By the way, I still have one year left before I graduate.)
My main concern is that I dedicated the past year to learning and spending all my time coding and improving my skills. However, I now feel somewhat stuck in my current job because I’m basically their best engineer, meaning I don’t have anyone more experienced to learn from.
So, my question is: Should I stay in this company and ask for a raise once the SaaS goes live, or should I look for another job? The issue is that job opportunities in Morocco aren’t great—most of them are not remote, and since I’m still a student, I can’t work onsite. I’ve also been struggling to find open positions abroad.
I have about a year of experience, and I believe my skill level is decent for my age and experience. After reading all this, what advice would you give me, my senior brothers? I’d really appreciate your insights (please be nice!).
