I am.

Lots of us about, mostly work in Banking.

Similarly to London, is it possible to get 6-figure salary? (in a finance sector of course)

Yes

I mean non-manager engineering - sounds good if that's the case.
ruairidhwm
Oh right, sorry! Yeah I imagine it exists but couldn't point at any tangible examples.

Yeah, I was looking around and it seems like banks are pretty popular.

What's the banking culture like? I'm curious as I'm in banking as well but doing credit card analytics and being the bridge between the business and technology teams.

Also found something curious. There was a job posting for a senior analyst position but it's considered a VP-level role?

I'm from there and it's an amazing city. Loads of tech meetups etc. Feel free to ping me an email and I'd happily intro you to some people.

I'm in Madrid atm but will be back in Edinburgh one day :)

Awesome. Lucky you!

Thanks, I'd love to meet up when we're both in Edinburgh. I'll shoot you an intro email and perhaps we can go from there?
