There was a time when you had hardware guys, and software guys (and gals too). I have always been on the hardware side of things, in fact I enjoy that side of the fence. It seems as though now you can no longer just be hardware as so many things ranging from sensors to power management have communication interfaces requiring some amount of software, or firmware if you prefer. So if you want to do any sort of testing these days, you need some amount of programing just to get things done.
I find doing firmware related things as a chore and I really do not like doing it. Perhaps that is why I am not very good at it.
So what's my point. I really don't have one, I think they call this a rant
My advice to new would be engineers is, don't pigeon hole yourself like so many of your predecessors have done in the past, or you may find yourself playing catch-up or risk being left behind.
