If i wanna move to some based eastern european country one day, getting decree in IT might be my best bet. I have tried applying as UX/UI designer however you can only study that here in Lahti so it would be terrible tactic to apply to only one school.

    I’m kind of half cloud architect and half traditional Windows server engineering, and I hate coding.

    So, these days you want to consider Cloud Architecture. You might need to learn a little bit of Terraform or similar, but it’s not really traditional scripting. Your job is to know all the offerings of your preferred cloud vendor, and be able to use them to design an environment to meet business requirements in a secure/resilient manner. You’ll need a solid understanding of networking and security concepts to do it well. But pretty minimal coding.

    You may build it out via Terraform, or maybe you send the design to a dedicated build team. Once built it goes to the app folks to do their app coding. You probably help the coders troubleshoot traffic flows a bit, because they are pretty universally terrible at security, networking, and infrastructure in general. Because they are coders, but don’t really understand how anything actually works outside of their code. You are the platform expert.
