Identify a specific and urgent business need from your previous jobs. A real pain point for the managers.

I used to work in the gaming industry. I have 2 problems which they consider "difficult" but i know are solvable.

Its the "getting shit done" which is harder for me. All the small implementation details pile up ;(

Are you into web dev, desktop or backend ?

Thanks. Previous jobs is difficult, in recent years I've been working at places who only deal with large defence companies. They don't want to sign a contract for anything smaller than millions and I'm not going to win one of those.

The systems I build tend to be Java at the core (uncool but I like it and it works with the sector), but I do everything from requirements gathering through to operations including UI. Although a minimum of UI is preferable.
