Thanks. 17 years in the software business, including a couple of years as project manager. Consulting since 2008. Been in Java, Ruby, Javascript, Golang. Full stack. As for domains... some telco, some public sector, some education, publishing, etc. - the problem is that nothing deeply enough. That is why I am determined to pick anything and just go deep. I successfully came back to development after the PM years, so I optimistically assume I can become expert in any domain, as long as it is possible to sell it as one person consultancy and it looks viable for the future (and potentially build a product around it). Should I add anything more?

Where are you based and why did you drop out of PM?
- blarbspecial 9y ago
  Europe. Dropping PM was a result of: 1) could not get hired in my area, 2) the feeling that not getting my hands dirty in tech was less valuable.

    Do you imagine some domains that would be easy to get expertise in your area? For instance, many second-tier cities in the U.S. have drone hubs. Is there anything near you like that?

      Good idea, have to research for that.
