    This is actually a good time to get into the space. There’s not a ton of companies competing over a now growing market and the work is weird enough that AI hasn’t fully eaten it.

    Downside, see my other posts, the field wants to pull people who have a pretty diverse skill set. I would be prepared to discuss RAFT consensus in the same conversation as PID tuning and control theory.

    Checkout companies like Symbotic, Boston Dynamics, or robotics integrators like ABB

      Job sounds interesting. Several questions if u don’t mind me asking because I’m thinking to do small career change.

      • What’s the job title I should look for?
      • Do you think it’s possible to transfer from software developer? I have engineering background so I think I should be able to pick things up
      • Is ageism real in your industry? I’m in 30s so ain’t young so worried about applying to entry level positions
