IT here (8 yoe), could use some career advice but first:

2015 > 2020: $80k > $105k
(Switched companies)
2021: $145k + bonus
2022: $155k + bonus

I’ve hit my ceiling for my niche domain (professional services implementation for a dev tool). Every recruiter I’ve talked to can’t match what I’m making. Dunno what to do next.

Not technically strong enough for devops/sre/swe. Not interested in pre-post sales roles like sales eng/tam. Definitely not cut out for PM.

Any advice?

I’ve also considered ProServe for other solutions but they require years of experience. Feel like I’ve really pigeon holed myself into a single solution that is slowly losing market share.

Upskill your technical capability you want to go that way

I also read it the same as ED1. I think OP would do great in Product Mgt though.

Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3 but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world. (1 John 4).
