Consider the field of Oceanography!

Try hacking an underwater robot to navigate under ice from a ship during a storm. Or adding software on a remote buoy over dicy network connections to help it survive a hardware failure. Work every day knowing you are helping us to understand the worlds most precious resource better.

Most importantly work in a field with people who are passionate about their jobs!! It removes all the backstabbing when there is a higher common goal.
