Ask HN: Need help transitioning out of Software Engineering pleaseHi everyone! It has been many years now since I’ve felt completely lost in my career direction. I work as a backend software engineer and want to transition out of it. I’m feeling quite hopeless at this point.

I want to switch to something that aligns with my tech background and strengths. What other jobs can I transition into where I can leverage my strengths and background?Professional background: - Bachelors + Masters all in Computer Science - 10 years of experience all in FAANG level company - Senior software engineer level.
