I switched from being a SWE of ~10 years to a Research Engineer at DeepMind, so while it is difficult (as other comments have noted), it is absolutely doable. I wrote a blog post about it here: [EDIT: fixed] https://medium.com/@kfedvanilla/switching-from-software-engi.... Happy to answer any specific questions you may have beyond what's in the blog!

FYI, the link to your blog post doesn't appear to work (404 error).
You are correct, thanks so much!
Agh sorry, I'm not very good with computers... Fixed now!
