Studied EE and went into software after college. Started out system programming and now I work on high level backend services and frontend SDKs.

I've been drown more to engines and power generation. Specifically, control systems that are able to maintain stable operation despite changing conditions.

Few pieces of software I've worked on operate as "control systems". Most have been business logic.

Lately, I've been viewing "keeping the lights on", more important that "keeping engagement up".

Maybe I'll try to get into embedded/FPGA programming. Last time I applied I got passed up due to lack of experience.
