Ask HN: How to have a long career in tech?
2 by bosch_mind | 5 comments on Hacker News.
I’ve been in this field professionally for 6 years and work as a senior engineer at big tech. Curious on opinions for sustaining a long-term technical career in tech. Not interested in management and looking to stay technical. I see the market shifting, but obviously that doesn’t mean core CS knowledge disappears. I’m moreso looking to stay ahead of the curve, but what does that mean? Master stats and ML? Master the fundamentals because those never change? Would be nice to hear a perspective from the older generation who have weathered so many storms.
