the problem with an age appropriate resume is that it signals your age, and most companies aren't interested in any 'relationship and expert' power that candidates can bring since they have already filled those positions.

I’m not seeing that. What I’m seeing is that a lot of companies are hiring cheap (relatively speaking) junior or outsourced developers and a few “architects”.

In the cloud consulting space or the generic “digital transformation” space, you have a few customer facing consultants and lots of low paid people doing the grunt work.

I am not seeing any shortage of openings for either “principal software engineers”, or architects. Of course, I’m staying away from the west coast. The major cloud providers and their partners are hiring in most major cities as long as you’re close to a major airport. I happen to live near the world’s busiest airport.
