Yes! I'd say avoid:.

- industries that have serious consequences for errors, e.g. finance, health.

- high volume client facing systems, e.g. high tps b2c (think large e-commerce).

- companies not yet in a mature phase, e.g. 10 years or older.

Start there in terms of simple rules of thumb to filter out potential jobs. Then when doing interviews dig further. Lastly don't take leadership positions.

In the end of the day it's definitely possible to find something fulfilling but not all consuming, just take your time to find a place...I'm sure it's out there
