Sadly I lack the Kotlin/Springboot experience.

For people asking, if my current skills are relevant, this is what I can do:

Java Dev
Node.js Dev
C# Dev
VB.net Dev
VB6 Dev (yes, really!)
SQL
Postgre
MySQL
Episerver/opitmizely

Current SC runs out 2034

Live and work in London, would prefer office based based but really don't mind TBF.

I don't have a warchest. I have invested wisely which returns, living expenses.

Just finished year 2 on the bench. I am a lot fitter now though Life is too short to worry.

Your SC clearance is useless though unfortunately as you haven't used it within the last 12 months.

Perhaps reorder into relevance of client interest.

Read back-end staff engineer. List the versions. Java 25 (just released), 21 (previous lts) or Java 8 (12 years old)
Ditto with C#
PostgreSQL and MySQL before generic SQL, in fact dump SQL, because former two means you know it.
