I’ve built pretty much my entire career around this problem and it still feels evergreen. If you want a meaningful and rich career as a software engineer, distributed storage is a great area to focus on.

I'm a principal engineer in a faang-adjacent ecomm domain. I've been doing this for 11 years and I'm absolutely sick of it. there are no novel problems, just quarterly goals that compete with and dominate engineering timelines.

how did you get started, and what would you recommend for pivoting into this space?

Could I send an email? I'm sunsetting my CRUD career and going down this route, would appreciate some perspective.
