Most of the software I’ve written has gone into hardware products. Currently working on an embedded Linux system and writing a UI in ReactJS. We are late but only by a couple of months and I have every expectation that the software will be completed. The product has pre-sold about $1M already.
If you want to be working on shipping products, work on embedded stuff.
I’ve done customer facing business software too. Still mostly successful but that is where I’ve seen a few failures. One project I did was writing automated functional/integration tests didn’t see release but I take no blame for that one. The tests worked. The product didn’t.
