Not liking fads and over-complicated solutions is definitely not a problem and in many cases an advantage, and good hiring managers will acknowledge that. However, you do need some way to demonstrate that you are very good at what you do. If you have a fantastic portfolio of work you've done (either open source or publicly accessible stuff that you can convincingly claim you worked on) and some enthusiastic recommendations from people who worked with you, you will be a very attractive candidate.
