>> Maybe I’m deluded. Perhaps 36 really is too old and that’s the harsh truth that no one has the heart to express?

Although ageism is a real thing in tech, cross-disciplined developers bring a lot of soft skills and creative solutions to teams, at any age. Many companies recognize this.

My larger concern is why you would think this at your age. I hope you don't hold hidden biases against people that are over 40 and attempting to restart their careers.
