I've been a .NET dev for almost 8 years now and I agree with the general positivity sentiment in the comments, but...

As many senior devs I also want to retire early from tech. But unlike many, even if I spend hundreds of hours in leetcode, mock interviews, etc. I'm not sure if my work experience would be even considered for an interview at FAANG. Of course I could interview at Microsoft, but it's the only one. Google, Amazon, Facebook, they don't use/hire C# devs at all.

I'm guessing the only path is to learn some Java and sell myself as a C#/Java dev in order to be able to at least get an interview. Any former dotnet dev here that has successfully transitioned into a FAANG position that wants to share advices/experience?
