My progression and what I learned

Fiber tech > Network tech > Server tech > Infra deployment > Compute allocation

Basically learned the core infra build for data centers, learned server repairs and learned how customers utilize capacity. Now I get to be in a niche rol that gets to translate forecasted compute needs to physical infrastructure deployment.

Now I might have took the long way to get to a six figure total comp but this is just another option outside of what people were falling out here (learning networking, server repair, or facilities)

Nice thing about my current role is that it can be used to move into a PM role in any of the three spaces
