Mostly backend for web development (django most recently), though I'm moderately proficient at react and JavaScript for frontend. Also testing and QA.
I've been applying to all of full stack, backend web dev, and test/QA. No bites. Learning more languages might help, but I feel like having 0 years experience in (say) Rust won't get a lot of traction.
Maybe it's imposter syndrome but I feel like I've always been a sort of middle of the road engineer. Good at some things , bad at others. It feels like with all the layoffs and AI, there's less room for broadly competent people. There's just going to be the top tier, fighting and getting paid less.
