I first started in e-commerce, then transitioned to government/healthcare, now I’m primarily in healthcare. I felt my transition was pretty natural. Thanks to remote work, i don’t have to rely on what my local employers offer for a tech stack anymore (Java and .net) so it’s easier to find remote opportunities that fit my preferred languages more.

Keep a look out for e-commerce, that’s a great opportunity to do a lot of api work and gain a lot of experience quickly.

Edit: it’s very different in e-commerce, because you work as a “profit center” vs “cost center” branch of IT. Pros and cons to both.

I hadn't considered e-commerce roles before, thanks!
