More or less the path I took after finishing my Masters. Thankfully, at the time, I thought "leetcode-style" problems were cool. After a few months I got a remote interview from an online contest and got a "building stuff" position in SV. Can't say I've achieved happiness but financially it was so much better.

Enterprise architecture and UML diagrams, along with lots of text and diagrams. No pseudocode or leetcode to be found, only class diagrams at best. Not enjoyable. I don't understand how to get out of this position in all honesty.
