Hey guys, I am looking for some career advice specific to my situation. Im currently a support autonomy engineer & a previous IT engineer. Ive worked very closely with Python, C++, HTML, & Java but have never properly written code professionally. I have a lot of knowledge in industry-standard environments such as Linux, Ubuntu server, Docker, Ngnix, SQL, Vmware, AWS, Azure, Git, ADFS, Kubernetes, Bash/Shell, Atlassian, and Service now, to name a few. My question is, my career so far has been based on support engineering rolls but I don't see that being very lucrative anytime soon, which is one of the things I love about the tech field. So should I just buckle down & continue learning programming languages or go a different route where I can use the skills I currently have? If there is one im not sure what it would be.

Yeah, just kinda massage your resume to make it sound like you do some dev work. Don't lie but like say what you do in the best possible light. Try to sign up for entry level roles and just say you want to focus more on software development. Start grinding leet code, and get that role you can do it.
That’s honestly kind of what I do now 😅 but that’s what I was thinking would be the best route. Would you mind if I DMd you my resume to over look?
Yeah send it over.
