I've been in the freelance world for roughly 10 years, working as an independent contractor for boutique web agencies, early startups and other small businesses. Even game dev for indie game studios. College graduate with no formal CS training or education.I want to go from a freelance dev/webmaster type of role, to a better-paid and more formal SWE career. Collaborating with and learning from a team of engineers, to build and deploy products at larger scales. As a freelancer, I have adequate client-facing experience, communicating directly with clients for to better understand their problems, and discussing RFPs to meet goals. On the tech side of things, I've been very much been a "code only" person. Usually working independently (sometimes alone, sometimes in a small group of developers) with feature work and closing tickets with little regard to CD/CI. I will need on-boarding to learn modern, systematic approaches to software engineering using methods involving automation, testing, and cloud services. And understanding the team dynamics of a larger company. Not interested in contract work or high-risk ventures. |
