Main job (40h/week in theory, 35h/week in practice): tech lead, senior software engineer.

My side hustle (40h/week in theory, 5h/week in practice): junior software engineer for another company.

I have around 8 years of professional experience... so while working as a junior in my side hustle I don’t need that much time to finish my tasks (hence the 5h/week). Sometimes it’s a bit difficult to write code like a junior. I usually quit after a year because companies expect progress and more associated responsibilities (i don’t need that in my side hustle, i have that already on my main job). Funny thing is: I make like 95K/year in my main job and 50K/year in my side hustle... but the proportions don’t hold when it comes to time spent in each role.

How do you handle stuff like LinkedIn? How do they not know you have another job?

Hi, I am a developer with 5 years of experience and my skills are fairly junior level(I am not bright one) . Currently I am searching for similar remote position, how can I apply for one. I have tried applying online but most of applications are rejected due to skills.

Ps. I have bachelor degree in cs, can code in vanilla php, js and python. I can do regular frontend and wordpress like projects. I will accept lower pay due to reduced cost of living from relocation to hometown. Currently trying to build saas based invoicing app in side hustle, in planning stage.

You should get 4 junior jobs instead. Work 20h and make 200k

This reminds me of the guy that outsourced his own tasks to devs in lower income countries and got all the free time.

I imagine you needed to create a entire persona with linkedin presence and all to get the junior hired for remote work.

Or you simply don't have any online presence whatsoever. At least not one that shows the real life you.

This has got to be the most clever thing I’ve ever heard of. Are there ethical concerns here from the company where you’re a “junior” engineer?
