Your experience would be incredibly valuable.
However are you sure you want to take the cut in prestige/pay?
In the medtech space there's a huge need for project mangers, etc wish medical experience. So knowing how to code and how to query databases along with all that medical knowledge would be a super power.
However, I can't imagine you'd be happy as a junior engineer churning out react code but maybe?
I can take a pay cut definitely. I am a hobby programmer writing simple programs for my own use in Python but I have signed up for a university Python course to get better. I was thinking of getting involved in an open-source project but where do I find them? Very grateful for any help!
