I’d read PG’s essays (someone compiled them in a pdf on github) and learn about startups. Long term you don’t want to sell your soul to corporations.

Continue to learn and try to get some contract work meanwhile. In security this is very common: audits, penetration testing, etc.

Good luck!

There is a skit out there about the American dream, something like “where the little guy does well, advances, gets promoted, becomes the boss, and then can stamp on all the little guys”
