I've been contracting in SQL Server based BI (db design/dev/ETL/reporting) for 7 years, it feels like I've hit the ceiling and it's time to move out of my comfort zone and use my existing skills as a basis for something else, ideally a bit more lucrative, but I'm struggling to decide what. While I've picked up the occasional new skillset along the way, I'll need to train myself up first whatever I choose, so I'm hoping for some advice on which way to go.
I'm open to learning more technical skills - e.g. I know a bit of C# and VB from SSIS script tasks but not enough to specialise in, or maybe go into data architecture, or focus on learning more about the cloud (my experience is mostly on-premise), or something else I haven't thought of yet... but I don't fancy going into PM or anything "Agile" related.
Ideally I'd like to find something future-proof that my skills are already mainly transferrable to... has anyone here attempted anything similar or have any suggestions?
