I'm in a similar position. I think if you have experience they really try to interview you for senior positions where you are defining technical architectural standards and teaching others.

At least in the initial stages it seems FAANG companies at least are very good at ignoring age for applicants, later stages though are tougher when most people interviewing you are half your age.
