Same. It took about 25+ years, and a hobby that happens to pay the bills. Interesting that you say that about how things are similar. It’s so true! The same patterns/abstractions are everywhere, just with different words in them, different orders, and sometimes, different names. I also have no interest in an SRE role. I don’t like being on-call. I build systems to fail gracefully so I never work weekends, but most people don’t do that for some reason. I currently work as a SWE. We don’t have explicit roles where I work, but my responsibilities are in-line with a principal or lead engineer.
