Realistically, how do I maximize my salary? /u/Jacko-Jack CSCQ protests reddit

I started off in this field about 12 years ago, and I learned using Ruby on Rails (and Angular 1, but that was quickly abandoned) at a bootcamp.

I’m making good money (by all accounts, in comparison to other fields, _great money_), but I would love to make more.

I have a little bit of impostor syndrome about moving on from what I know so well (RoR), but what’s my cap as a Rails developer? Am I hurting my career by only having expertise in the Ruby ecosystem?

I’ve never worked for a FAANG, but I’ve moved up the ranks at different startups/companies, to the point where I’m a ‘Staff’ engineer (basically team leading and running projects).

What’s my next career move?
