Don't choose the wrong tech career in 2026

I loved the video soooo much, thanks a lot, you can't imagine how useful this video was, and I would always appreciate such content

Data Engineer

Love the call out about focusing on the industry rather than the job role. In my opinion, most people are so focused in the role that they would take a job in any industry. Becoming a technical expert in a specific industry is also key to increasing your income.

Jobbyo honestly seems way easier than spending hours applying manually. The auto-apply feature looks really useful for finding better jobs.

Hey, would it be reasonable as a new graduate to go for a Tech Analyst Consultant at Deloitte as a stepping stone for product companies? Or is it better to try and get an offer in a product company?

Thank am still trying to understand each of them

Damn a PHD for AI machine learning

Bro sounds like Henry Cavil

Thank you I left nursing, I’m 50, and in coding bootcamp because my husband had a stroke, I had to apply for food stamps and they have a program …. So now I’m in bootcamp and I’m very grateful ❤

You didn't mention anything on Data Engineering

m gonna follow u , such a good video bro!! keep uploading

how about game developer??

I want to link my Portfolio here but not sure if youtube will block this post.

Thanks for all the videos @andrewcodesmith.

I appreciate you not pushing the “influencer fear and doubt”

Solid work

I like build and protect just starting my computer science class was in business going for research ai about 5 years to go

One the best pieces of content I've ever seen, Great Job Andrew this was very helpful really

I’m doing this internship making ai agents for cybersecurity seems hella cool and also transferring to a uni

Don’t follow the YouTubers and actually get a bachelors and masters in ee so you have job security and very high pay (pay seem to be rising a ton because of ai)

“I’ve recently started trying out Jobbyo for my job search. The auto apply feature actually saves a lot of time and helps find relevant openings. Still exploring it, but so far it looks quite useful.”

Guess I picked the right career “Network Security engineer” 😊

hey dude i AM 16 AND I LIKE GAME DEV BUT NO SCOPE IN MY COUNTRY THINKING FOR FULL STACK AND CLOUD ANY ADVICE? I LIKE MATHS BUT I DONT KNOW IF I WILL BE GOOD AT IT IN FUTURE

can you elaborate on Cloud security

Good content, I still have to choose mine, but software engineering is interesting.

How did you get into tech in your 30s? I will be 30 this year and I would like to make a switch into tech from civil engineering. Your insights will be greatly appreciated

I am happy to see the M1 MacBook Air, it's what I use as my daily for work, Xcode, android, scala. Not in pressure to upgrade anytime.

What about data scientist? I'm applying for master's in DS

This has to be the most vague video and put of point video I have ever seen

There is no right or wrong career direction. Just choose a niche that you actually love doing and do that real good

What about full stack development? Im doing it

Hey, what about Data Engineering? 😅
I am currently in a data engineering / software engineering hybrid role.
I'm technically in a data engineering role but I also do a lot of development on apps and in the framework that is used by the entire team.

I won't lie. All this AI hype is very draining, but at the same time it must eventually stabilize and the AI bubble burst.
With this, I don't mean AI will be gone and everything will go back to its previous state. I think AI is here to stay. But I think there will eventually be an equilibrium between the use of AI and the rest of the world (yes, the world, not just tech jobs).

Either way, data engineering for me has been pretty safe for me, at least. I'm not in the USA, though.

What about Data Engineer ? you just mentionned them but didn't talked about them, I'm an aspiring Data Engineer and I want to have opinions on the future of this career

i am thinking to start my career in smart contract developement ? is it good? need suggestions

Thanks!

At this point, most of my positions are Business and Data Analyst, basically how to use the data to make business decisions easier and more profitable.

I'm leaning towards becoming an ML engineer, I'm quite good at maths but I'm also good at explaining things once I know them. One issue I have is I live in a small European country so the market is not really evolved the way people tell me on Youtube. Going fully remote would change that, something to work on.
