Anyone hiring on their product team?
Sounds like you've multifaceted and high demanded talents. With many companies accepting remote, I'd think you can find a job easily! GL!!
My company has Lidar/software positions. That's me putting lidar in search. I'm sure they've others. Though, I don't know anyone there, so can't help too much. Some outsourced to low cost countries but I see one in Indiana... I'll PM you.

I did not, because easily could have. This comes up occasionally, so I always say this. Taking a low interest loan against assets (even depreciating ones) is preferable to your financial profile than spending cash on an (especially depreciating) asset. I always, always, always get nice long low interest loans for larger purchases, and keep the rest invested somewhere safeish. I have a good portfolio of art, land, and bunch in the markets. Even though they're down significantly now, they'll recover. Pulling money early results in fees/taxes/etc.

2% car loan or lose out on the 60k at 12% or whatever art/real estate/markets are doing.

or just pay cash, whatever.
That's terrific if you can earn a higher percentage than you're paying in interest. In the last month or so, my person portfolio is down more than 40%. Will it recover? Sure, eventually. The way the world is right now, I'm guessing that it isn't going to recover for several years. So paying cash for a car seems like the much better option to me.

Personally, I haven't taken out a loan for my last 7 vehicles. Cash deals only for me. I already have as much money invested as I want to invest, including retirement accounts and my own personal portfolio.

Life in my professional world is very challenging right now. But I still love what I do.
