Seems like the new "offshoring" of jobs in the not so distant future

The outlook isn't looking too good to me. Unless you're in the field established, IT as a career is gonna look real grim in 5-10 years imo.

Quantum computing, machine learning, AI etc all converging at the same time, progressing at a more rapid pace than expected.

Bezos deletes 'LGBTQ+ rights' and 'equity for Black people' from Amazon policies
Amazon's modifications mirror similar actions taken by other major companies after Trump’s election victory, including Meta, McDonald’s, and Walmart

I landed a role with an engineering company which will remain nameless. Let's just say they're global and one of the more well known companies. I'm pretty stoked to be in this position honestly.
I'm 2 months in and a part of a newly created team that manages the labs the engineers use. So a boat load of servers, workstations, test equipment etc.
We have a pretty big budget for process improvement and I'm looking into ways we can utilize the budget and to make our jobs more efficient.
So my question to you guys is what are some things, be it hardware or software you would reccomended? Our systems run on Linux and windows. Our roles range from sys admins to technical support stuff. We are in charge of managing and the setting up of thousands of servers. Alot of our pain points lie with disorganization and keeping track because the engineers have been adding their "devices" to the racks for testing at will.
Firewall and security is monitored by another team.

Any vim users here?
In the process of making the switch to Neovim as my IDE.
Hasn't been quite as painful as I thought but it's definitely overwhelming.

Hopefully you're utilizing VSphere and have a process in place for them to request a new server spin up to stop the random servers from appearing.

Yea we use Vsphere. It's not servers they're adding. It's "devices" . I cant into too much detail but they take up a small footprint.
I did some research and came across the perfect tool that would alleviate 70% of our pain points. I did a presentation for my team and boss and they loved it. Designated myself to lead the deployment, configurations and implementation. Already updated my resume and got my notes ready for my review next year. I'll be looking for that promotion

I’m at a big tech company in Seattle doing robotics testing and I am taking the leap doing full submergence to learn python, C+ C# (since my job reading script and programming I kinda was familiar) doing 3 boot camps at once. And my company pays for school. But AI machine learning is the new boom, I’m trying to learn all I can, but the last few pages I’ve read seem very grim. I’m just knocking out Al the CS and Programming certs I can.
I have Boeing, Amazon & SpaceX background in testing(functional, environmental) but now trying get into tech? I’m late to the party

Never too late. I started in my late 30s, but always loved tech. Mindset, willingness to learn and being teachable are the most important things and it sounds like you're on the right track.
