The poster has 10 years of experience as a full stack developer, primarily using JavaScript, React, and Next.js. They are considering a career shift to security, specifically appsec engineering, due to boredom with their current role and a challenging job market for their tech stack. They prefer individual contributor (IC) work and are open to a pay cut, though they acknowledge the security job market is only marginally better. Their understanding of the day-to-day responsibilities in security is limited.
