Build web applications and enterprise scale software.
Working on internal products that we'll launch to service our clients. Ideation, planning and technical consultation for client pieces. Tacos. Identifying future client requirements and ensuring we develop flexible solutions that will meet them when the client realizes that's what they want.
Here's the first step for professionals
Realize that lack of direct experience is nothing you can't overcome with 2 or 3 years on the job. Also, an underrated skill in software development is communication. Talking to colleagues and clients and understanding what they're asking for, what they're trying to achieve and if there's a disconnect between the two. You can deliver a product the client's happier with in less time and using less tech if you really understand what their goals and requirements are.
