For example, in Oracle Bare Metal you can learn a lot since it’s written from scratch, but in WebLogic probably not so much.
Basically, the more mature the product line is, the flatter the learning curve. Think of Airbnb/Uber 3 years ago, before huge scaling, and now.
Team- having more experienced folks who are willing to share their wisdom in a friendly manner.
Manager, oh managers, is probably the most critical factor. Your manager should be one who lets you steer technically and venture out and try new things. I’ve been fortunate enough that I was always pulled to uncharted lands which I greatly enjoy.
Go for a company that has recently raised a B round aka has demonstrated product/market fit and is ready to scale.
