Hi! A friend of mine recruited me to build a website for his local business. It's a bit more than just a business site though- we have a database and integrations and it's used primarily to manage sales. I can't disclose much but it's really good experience. I was the only engineer and I designed and built the entire thing from scratch and worked true part time (nights after work for a few months).
I'm an engineer coming up on 2 years at my full time job. I want to add this experience to my linkedin and resume but I'm worried it looks suspect. I was technically contract but I'm part time now after launch for maintenance.
It'd be a great addition since I could technically be considered a senior engineer at his company. I would disclose that it's part time/contract on Linkedin but .. if I call myself a senior does that make much sense? I know title doesn't mean a whole lot, but my day job doesn't involve much coding and I'm trying to land a real developer role. Company ethics says it wouldn't conflict since it's a different industry but I will have to report it.
Not sure what the right move is! Thanks
