Will there be a good development for a 32-year-old boy to switch to programming?

Unless you are a genius, it is almost impossible for you to make a good development when you switch to programming at your age. The programmer industry is basically a youthful meal in China. If you don't change careers after 35, you may be forced to change careers.

If a 35-year-old programmer cannot be promoted to a management position, consider the following positions.

Product manager. One of the best directions for programmers' career transformation is that software companies can constantly look for developers with certain development skills, but they can't easily recruit people who know both development and business, and product managers are people who know both business and technology.

R&D management. There are many links in software R&D process, which are prone to quality problems. Especially in today's era, the iteration speed of software R&D is getting faster and faster, so the requirements for R&D process management are getting higher and higher. From code writing to integration, testing and deployment, there must be a set of strict management norms, and R&D personnel are not an easy group to manage. The principle that scholars despise each other can actually be applied to programmers. R&D managers transformed from programmers can easily establish corresponding prestige and integrate into the programmer team, thus making the promotion of R&D management easier.

Sales, R&D personnel are generally introverted, but when R&D personnel overcome this problem, you will find that the salesperson transformed from a programmer has incomparable advantages over other salespeople, because he knows technology and business, and his technical characteristics can gain the trust of users more easily and provide users with more professional solutions; Once the sales position is successfully transformed, his future career development will be broader, because 70% of the senior managers in general enterprises may be promoted from sales staff.

Education industry, training the next generation of programmers.
