I've been a software engineer 20 years and never been "bored". If you find your work boring, that's probably because it is. Perhaps you've outgrown it and it's time to move on. If the company you work at lacks opportunities, it's probably time to move on.

All "work" involves occasionally tedious tasks: attending pointless epic meetings, filing TPS reports, etc. If it was fun all the time we'd pay to do it, and not vice-versa.
