Thanks for your answer.

> Do you want a new career or a new job?

Both.

> Where do you want to be? What can you imagine yourself as?

Hm, difficult questions I can only partially answer. One part is definitely to become an (part-time) investor again.

> Can you not imagine yourself as a developer because of self-doubts or because you really don't like that path?

It's a mix of both. I have doubts whether I can do it. And I have difficulty to imagine doing it 100%. What I liked in the past was working at the design level, with paper and pen. But at the two developer jobs I had in the past, this was only a small part of the work. Most of it was coding, which for me is more of a necessary evil. Or to say it in another way: I like designing a house, not building it.

Sounds like you want to be a Product Manager - defining what a product does and managing the efforts to get it implemented. Titles might also be project manager but product is usually a key word that an organization is less concerned about typical PM's and more about product delivery vs. IT. Business Analyst might also be a path towards a product manager.

Maybe look for something in the investment space since you have knowledge about that.

If you don't like the act of writing code then you def don't want to go down the developer route. I agree with some of the other comments that looking into product management might very well be worth it and your background in investment can help with that if you find a company in that field!

Are you good at writing requirements or doing project management work? There are tons of opportunities in Fintech that need those type of skills. Having some tech background is a huge plus.

I don't know whether I'm good with those things as I have never done them.

If you have a good analytical mind, you can pick these skills up rather quickly.
