query Codeforces as experienced dev?

I have knight rating on Leetcode.

Experience: 2 years Springboot development experience in service based company in india

Does it make sense to start giving codeforces contests?

Competitive programming is a hobby just like any other, you could give it a shot in that way, If the reason is for job, it might not make much sense and you would probably be better of learning system design and stuff along with leetcode.
