Ask HN: Good jobs for those who like Computer Science but dislike Engineering?

3 points by askn 2 years ago

Have always been good at programming and dealing with theoretical concepts... But, when it comes to wiring different technologies together, testing, dealing with deployments, etc. my curiosity just disappears... Any suggestions for reliable career paths for those who are smart and can think algorithmically, but who don't have the natural tendency to build or "hack" things together?
