Unless you love learning to code and love continuous pressure to learn even more, don't get an entry level as a software engineer. Try to find a job that only takes one or two deep level of knowledge in a tech stack, and keep that. What most companies want an entry level job today is someone willing to work 120 hours a week to meet arbitrary deadlines to maximize profits. Avoid FAANG.

What would be an example?
Blue Origin. Don't do software there. They are just like FAANG but probably even worse when it comes to aerospace than Boeing or Northrop.
