They just offer senior titles to justify the paycheck, I think.

I just want an out of this fullstack web dev work. I was considering targeting HFT companies for money and complex technical work (but there are very few openings). Or maybe invest some time in golang, and target getting into dev teams that build AWS, GCP etc. Or something niche like VMWare, that builds virtual computers.

But the skills required for these are very different from my current skillset. I don't want to end up investing time and effort in something, and get nothing in return.

How do I take calculated risk? I already need to be proficient in NodeJS Typescript, JS frontend frameworks, using docker / AWS.
