How it works

Step 01

Search across 40+ curated Indian-IT-flavoured roles. Type a free-text title if yours is not in our graph.

Step 02

Realistic next steps with median Indian salary bands. Branches diverge — sometimes you fork into Tech Lead vs Engineering Manager.

Step 03

Every transition has 3-6 unlock-skills with essential and nice-to-have flags, plus typical years to make the move.

Where do the salary numbers come from?: Manual triangulation across AmbitionBox aggregated bands, Glassdoor India median, and the salary signal in EasyHyre's own job table for that role's common titles. The band is the median of the three medians; p25 and p75 come from AmbitionBox IQR. Re-checked quarterly.
Why isn't my exact role here?: We curate at function-level (Backend SDE, not 'Backend SDE on Node.js') and ship ~40 roles in v1, expanding to 80. If your title isn't there, search a free-text query — we offer a best-guess fallback without salary bands and accept your suggestion for the next graph version.
Is the 5-year column a single chain?: No — it's branched. Most starting roles have 3-6 reasonable 5-year terminals; we render them ranked by direction (promotion-heavy first), salary delta, and typical-years fit. Picking one doesn't lock you in.
Why no per-city bands (Bengaluru vs Pune)?: Per-city bands triple the curation burden. The national median + IQR is enough for the 'is this move worth it' decision; if you want city-precision, AmbitionBox has it for individual companies.
