What are some examples of exit opportunities for a software engineer in consulting? I don’t necessarily want to move into a SE role at a tech firm. I enjoy a lot of the people aspects of my role - agile coaching etc.

I just changed from data scientist to product owner in the same company. There are definitely new challenges and knowledge I need to learn. I work much more to catch up but happy so far.

Product manager, agile coach, technical program manager at bigger tech companies, sales engineer, solution architect. All of these would be great given your SE and Consulting combination.

If you DM me I can see what your background is and chat about which roles may make sense.

My background in consulting was related to product management then I moved to digital agencies and I still focus on product management but more UI/Design focused even though I’m more technical.

I know quite a few stories of consultants moving to Product, Sales Engineer, and TPM roles. Mix of software engineers and non software engineers who have done that

Hi guys,

I switched 20 days back to Optum. I have 7 years of experience working as a full stack Engineer, who is passionate working on both front end and back end on latest technologies. But my project is working only on back end with 10 years old tech stack. There is no front end work at all. What should I do?
I don't like working here at all, but I am not sure whether moving out again in a month will give bad Impression on my resume. Hence please give me advice on this situation

For next year my goal increased by 2.5X, and less of what I bring in counts towards that target. I really enjoy my job but I will essentially be getting a large pay cut. Lost in what to do besides quit??
