If you get to a point where ageism actually becomes an issue for you, I would suggest embedded systems engineering. With your C++ background it should be no problem for you, and in my experience firmware engineers tend to be older and don't have age bias like the rest of the industry. I enjoy firmware because you get to work fairly closely with actual physical things and apply your knowledge to an extremely wide array of real-world applications.
- peacemaker 13y agoWell I have done quite a bit of embedded work in the past and I agree, I was often the youngest software engineer on the team. I quite enjoy the work too, but the thought of going through the whole interview process again is tiring! Needs a lot of prep to get back into the correct mindset, especially seeing as I've been doing a lot of web stuff recently.
