[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This will be hard. Ageism is fierce. I would post and read up on hacker news. A 2nd tier startup actually may give you a shot b/c they often need gravitas and most premier programmers know it’s a raw deal unless you are founder. But it’s good resume building. Otherwise, Fed contracting weighs heavily towards years of experience, not necessarily recent years. So they would be in your favor as well as degrees. NASA especially is good for greybeards. Cloud is hot, so take some certs, but definitely look for your skills in postings. Open a GitHub and make a portfolio of work there.
