Can you please share why do you advice to stay at a company for 2 years? If someone is not getting challenging kind of work to push your knowledge and technology beyond limits? And how to portrait your accomplishments in resume for such role when u r just building API's

Generally, it's easier to get a raise by joining a new company than to get a raise at an existing one. Staying for 2 years seems to be the sweet spot between raising suspicions about job hopping and prolonging the stay in an underpaid position, whether or not it's really underpaid.
