Level up your software-engineering career — free calculators for salary negotiation, tech-offer comparison, equity vesting, coding-interview prep, and remote-team scheduling, plus plain-English guides to compensation, job hunting, and the developer life.
From reading an offer’s true total comp and comparing two of them to modelling equity, planning a countdown to your coding interview, and finding a standup time a distributed team can actually keep, CoderCaste pairs free hands-on calculators with plain-English career guides and an illustrated museum of computing. Get the numbers behind your career right before you sign.
Developer Career Calculators
Free tools for the numbers behind a software-engineering career — salary negotiation, offer comparison, equity vesting, coding-interview planning, Big-O complexity, and remote-team scheduling.
Dev Salary Negotiation Calculator
Turn a base, bonus, annual equity, and sign-on into one total-comp number, then see the raise over your current pay and how a counteroffer moves it
Tech Offer Comparison
Line up two or three job offers side by side — base, bonus, and equity vesting over four years, adjusted for cost of living — and rank them by real annual value
Coding Interview Countdown
Turn the weeks until your interview and your study hours into a spaced week-by-week plan across the core data-structures and algorithms topics, with review built in
Big-O Complexity Estimator
Enter an input size and see the operation count and feasibility for O(1) through O(2ⁿ) — the interview mental model for why one algorithm scales and another times out
Equity Vesting Calculator
Model an RSU or option grant across a cliff and monthly schedule — vested value to date, shares still locked up, and what vests at the next milestone
Remote Standup Planner
Enter each teammate's UTC offset and find the working-hours overlap, then pick a standup time that lands in everyone's day — shown in every member's local clock
Computing Museum
Step into an illustrated museum of computing — the pioneers who invented the field, the machines and chips that ran the first programs, the languages and systems developers still build on, and the ideas that turned code into an engineering discipline, each in its own gallery. Get to know the history and the people behind the work you do every day.
