Got a bachelor in Nanotechnology and a master in high frequency electronics, when it was time to hit the job market I realized there was none for someone like me.
Started to teach myself programming, started with CS50, got a job. More as an engineer then sw-developer, taught myself python and machine learning in my free time. Transitioned to lead a project with big AI focus also was the lead dev. Switched companies a couple of times since then but still today I try to do a online course or to read a book, article etc.
I guess I will always feel like I need to fill the academic gap of not studying CS in university.
Also a course I think is amazing that will give you good knowledge of one of the most popular frontend frameworks and some background knowledge in databases and backend.
