Wow - thank you for such a generous response!

Yeah, I'm agreed on most of the AI stuff - becoming a more architect-shaped engineer is now more important than ever.

I've been flicking through a copy of https://www.amazon.co.uk/Structured-Design-Fundamentals-Disc... lately to get my brain into gear on this subject.

Thanks for all the web dev advice and tech callouts. Some real neat examples there which I knew nothing about.

Regarding niches, I think as a data engineer, becoming fluent in an interactive front-end data-viz library might be the slam dunk that I'm probably looking for.

Having looked at D3, I am quite impressed! Do you have any experience or knowledge of this lib?

Again, thank you for sharing :)
