The oldest devs I’ve worked with have to be mid 40’s, don’t think I’ve worked with anyone in their 50’s, they’ve long left.
At 35 working in software for 15 years I don’t see any career progression, I’m probably getting my highest pay of my career as stuck in a job now where my options to move involve a pay cut. The only career progression I have is people management which I have no interest in and will be bad at as not my skills.
I don’t want to be dealing with corporates and agile nonsense in to my late 40’s.
The only option I’m seeing is save as much as I can while I’m getting paid well in order to have some kind of hobby business in 10-15 years time.
