Embedded Software Engineer. Like the software that would run on a coffee maker, medical equipment, bulldozer, etc.
I'm working on a computer science degree, and stuff like that is by far the most interesting to me! Assuming you don't dislike your job, can I ask how you got into that field?
Too bad; you’ll be a soulless React dev and you will like it!
Got a job as an engineer technician working on electrical stuff for a couple years when fresh out of school, kept diligent with applications and eventually landed something in the field. What got me most interested in the field was through volunteering at a lab during college mostly helped out a PhD student with a couple random month long projects. Having a background in the electrical side of things can be a big help as well.
Thats feckin dope!!
