Hello co-founders, What does it take to build something like LinkedIn in terms of engineering? I come from a design background, so I have a decent grasp of design and research, and I understand the problem space and niche for my potential product. However, I’m not fully aware of the engineering efforts involved in building a platform like LinkedIn. Could you share some insights with me? Additionally, how much would it cost to bootstrap and launch an MVP? Thank you!

It’s very difficult to build something for that scale.

Building something like LinkedIn isn’t just about coding profiles and connections. You’ll need complex algorithms, search capabilities, and data handling on a massive scale if you ever get big. LinkedIn has years of infrastructure development you won’t get close to that with an MVP.

The cost of building an MVP depends on team size, technology stack, infrastructure, and legal compliance. It can range from a few thousand to tens of thousands of dollars

No matter how much you troll LinkedIn (I myself have been guilty of that), LinkedIn’s Engineering team has open-sourced, hands down some of the BEST tech in data and distributed systems. https://engineering.linkedin.com/open-source

What kind of engineer lifestyle is better for satisfaction. 😅 Pavel Durov traveling around the world and has access to all supermodels but no wife. Engineering Manager at Big Tech with decent wife and upper middle class lifestyle.

“Prompt engineering” is fake an always has been, wordcel cope from the start. Engineering implies design, implementation, testing, evaluation and iteration; none of which were clearly done if people are just now realizing it doesn’t work. Your views
