Good Day,
I recently separated from the US Navy. I'm searching for options as a civilian career. I have loved computers since I was a child, and would say I'm slightly above average when it comes to my knowledge base. I'm self taught up to this point but have a good working knowledge about certain hardware, software, operating systems such as: OSX, Windows vista-7, little about linux, and little about FreeNAS 9.10. I have done all of my own hardware upgrades for my machines as well as friends and family that trust me with their devices. I can troubleshoot common software issues with a somewhat low failure rate, and I recently built a NAS box using FreeNAS and PMS that ended in success which is used daily. I'm interested in software development e.g. coding languages, understanding code, networking, encryption, and potentially cyber security. I am aware there are more things I don't understand than there are that I do. Is there a job that encompasses all or most of the interests I've mentioned that also allows me to build on the foundation I have already developed? Any insight, comments, suggestions, guidance, or further questions welcomed. For the more personal questions please send them via private message
Thank you in advance.
