How people ask for it

1 example written by Taskly from what people search for in Dubai and the UAE. Real tasks look like these.

  • “Software engineer mentor to help me grow to senior in Dubai”

    I'm looking for a software engineer mentor who has made the move from mid-level to senior. I'm a backend engineer at a fintech in Dubai, three and a half years in, working mostly in Go and PostgreSQL on AWS.

    My manager says I need to show more ownership and system design thinking before I'm considered for senior. I write solid code, but I struggle to lead design discussions, write design documents, and push back on scope with product managers.

Good questions

What people ask before they post this in Dubai and the UAE.

  • 01

    How much does mentor in your field (software, data, product, design) cost in Dubai and the UAE?

    Usually AED 150–700. Each Tasker names their own price in their offer, so you see the cost before you agree to anything.

  • 02

    What should I share with an engineering mentor?

    A design document or RFC you wrote, with company details removed, your company's level expectations if they are published, and feedback from your last review. That lets the mentor focus on the real gap.

  • 03

    What separates a senior engineer from mid-level?

    Usually scope and influence: owning a system end to end, leading design discussions, spotting risks early and helping others. Code quality matters, but most promotion feedback is about these wider behaviours.

  • 04

    How does paying work?

    Posting is free. When you accept an offer you pay the agreed price. Your money is held by Taskly until you confirm the task is done. If you don’t, it’s released three days after your Tasker marks it finished — unless you report a problem.

  • 05

    Who are the Taskers?
