Hello aspirant, 

Yes even people who take ECE are also doing software jobs, just the thing is one must excel in improving all the required technical skills. So proceed forward in learning the technical skills for the job. 

All the very best for your bright future!! 

Dear Rahul, now since the advancement in technology the need for skilled coders has tremendously increased. Even the students from Mechanical branch are able to get into software companies. If you are skillful and you have excellent coding abilities then any tech gaint will hire you. The time has changed, there was a time when only CSE students were able to get into tech giants but now students from different branches are able to make it to these companies.

All the best 

Hope this helps
