Amazon SDE 3
Hello fellow Engineers, i have 15 yoe in backend applications but not at a large scale. I have architected a few minor applications, but not anything fancy or revolutionary.
I want to apply for Amazon SDE 3 role, but am a little skeptical.
Q1) Does prior experience in building large scale systems be a huge factor for this level ?
Q2) I am good at Datastructers and Algorithms and actually do 50% hands on at my current job. Should i just apply for SDE 2?
Q3) If I apply for SDE 3 and fail, will they consider me for SDE 2 ?
Thanks in Advance!

I was SDE III at Amazon.
1. It's a huge plus
2. Aim for SDE III, if you don't meet the level they typically will also evaluate you for SDE II so there isn't much harm.
3. Yup
