    I mean. My dream job would be to run infra/ops for a place like this, or really anything at nasa.

    My skill set is generally running infrastructure with the basics of security (I did netsec for a bank for a while).

    But I wouldn’t be able to be paid my salary and benefits, even though I take a much smaller stake than I could working at non profits. It would be even less in these fields.

    Even for a place like nasa the jobs are really hard to come by and the hiring is no where near straightforward. And there’s a lot of regulatory capture that has contractors handling a lot of it with grift and generally poorer benefits as a result.

      That is identical to my observations from a data science perspective.
