Your PhD is how you learn to produce original research. If you’ve produced original research you’ll defend your thesis if you haven’t you’ll have to try again.
If your original research has commercial potential it will get you in the door immediately. If not it will still be highly regarded and open the door to higher level positions.
If you're highly entrepreneurial, use your PhD to research your startup, then use your thesis to fundraise. Here's an idea, research removing the GIL from Ruby, research anything to do with AI or computer vision.
