My degree is in accounting and I’ve been an accountant, a data analyst, data warehouse manager, currently software developer.
It’s important to note that I’ve always been an I individual contributor and not a manager. I’ve managed cross departmental projects in the past, with many stakeholders but don’t have any direct experience as a manager. I don’t mind that as I think being an IC has always been rewarding. I’ve worked in construction, local government, health spaces.
I’m wondering if I should get a masters in some stem field to future proof my career. I’ll need to start with some math courses as my accounting degree doesn’t quite cut it but am looking at where quantum computing/engineering may be 10 years from now.
