Work remotely and anonymously. Let the quality of your work shine through so that age becomes irrelevant.

There aren't many such roles, but with remote work gaining popularity, they're becoming more of an option.

Another point to where the crypto space shines, for compensation.

Most of the experienced people were involved in some major fuckup not long back. Just roll a new ident and build. The market is insatiable. A segment of the market thinks they want to “doxx” every builder, but they don’t matter.

You can dye your hair and use soft lighting to look a lot younger on video. I've seen senior engineers do exactly that to get remote jobs. Then after that you leave your camera off.

Perhaps parent meant private, as in keeping your age private as it wouldn't make sense to be anonymous if your expecting to be paid :-)
