    You should start poaching the gaming industry, it’s shedding developers like mad. Most of them are familiar with several stacks so pickup up new stuff is nbd.

      Haha, those would be my kind of co-workers, but the kind of work we do requires a background and degree in electrical engineering and power systems. Although, I have been moving away from this in my career in the conventional sense. I want to do dev stuff and networking stuff, that’s where the fun is! They recently gave me an opportunity to help program and configure all the networking and automation equipment for a substation, been learning a lot and feeling like my tinkering with homelab stuff is finally paying off in some way lol.

        Ohh, you’ll find degrees but not in power systems :). No wonder it’s hard to find hands.
