29 year old pp teacher here. Do you really work 5 hours per night after a full day at school? I don't know how. I can barely keep up with what I'm doing.

Aritificial intelligence. Hot area.
Do you want to get over that hump? What is artificial intelligence? Military background?
PhD in CS. Non military background or work, although obviously also a hot area for them.
Artificial intelligence is a bit of a misnomer for machine learning: given a series of training data, can you teach a computer to draw inferences from that data? For instance, you feed a computer images of biopsy slides from patients with and without cancer, then you feed it a test - something you know has/does not have cancer present and ask the computer if it does. It's gotten to the point where the computers (on some tasks) are better (and obviously) faster than humans. The applications are numerous - from the fun (teaching a computer to play video games), to the more practical (voice recognition, speech recognition, etc).
How much of that salary is base vs. profit sharing/bonus vs. stock options/stock? Are you a 1099 contractor or a W-2?
990 K is huge for someone technical. Even at the CTO level.
