Can we get Data Engineer job in abroad from India? Mostly a remote work?
Is it realistically possible to work for a foreign company remotely from India as a Data Engineer and earn a significantly higher salary than local market rates?
For those who have done it:
What types of opportunities are available (full-time remote, contract, freelance, consulting, etc.)?
Which countries or companies are most open to hiring Data Engineers from India?
What skills, certifications, or experience helped you land such roles?
Where do you find and apply for these opportunities?
How are payments, taxes, and legal aspects handled?
I'm currently exploring long-term career options and would love to hear real experiences, salary ranges, challenges, and advice from people who have successfully made this transition.
