I made a similar transition at 35. Have you looked at quant developer roles? They may value your experience and background more and be more willing to compromise on your software engineering experience.
- jamesliudotcc 4y agoI did it when I was 36, but I wasn't a quant. It took a coding bootcamp to get to where you say you are, maybe a little bit further. But given what you say, you can skip that. While you probably don't need a full year of self-teaching fundamental computer science to be able to do the job, or to interview, you may need to drill and kill algorithms problems on leetcode or similar.
