I have been doing desktop support for WAY too long. In the early 2000s I was doing web development, but went back to desktops. I want to get back into the webdev game, maybe even full stack development. I want to work on a team, not solo, and I would love to work on game development. So, if anyone wants a likeable guy who can learn anything, I'm your guy!
Sometimes the bug its me, i'm junior dev who wants to work with js and .net , love games and in my free times read about game design and development , hope some day thats gonna be my main work. GLHF
And empaty, its hard for someone with anxiety to explain why i cant go early for work without someone telling 'try to put more alarms next time' or 'relax' when you have a bad wake up.
I've moved from a data analyst role to a consulting role where I help my DA friends most of the time and learn new stuff from the senior consultants the rest of the time. The company is growing, they look after our health and wellness, pay well and I can see the path to my next senior role.
I really want to become a mobile app developer but right now due to a growing interest with APIs, I am planning to eventually dive in to JavaScript (maybe, soon if time will suffice), too. I want to create my own APIs for my future mobile apps.

If there was just one, it would be much easier to plan my career. Ideally I'd have some control in choosing my projects, and there'd be some variety to them. Maybe on one project I'd be doing full stack web dev, and the next I'd be doing AI or VR, and the next I'd be rescuing a legacy project. Enough structure to keep me going, but without micromanagement. Awesome coworkers to learn from. An office environment that gives me enough privacy to get into my work, but that has space where I can have serendipitous conversations with coworkers. Someplace to walk around outside in the afternoons.

I don't know if the best answer is I don't have a dream job.
I want to do different things at different points in my life.
I love that I can craft things with code. I want to spend time working on projects that excite me. Taking them one step at a time, and maybe turning them into profitable products/companies and moving onto the next exciting thing.
I love medicine and hope to learn it sometime in the future.
I want to be a professional football or tennis player. I don't know if I'll be young enough when I retire from programming to venture into sports :)
There's this urge to want to try so many things :)

I'm pretty much there ... I think.

Working for DARPA. I doubt I will ever work there, unless I spend more time in Robotics/Engineering instead of focusing so much in computer science.
But the idea of working with beyond state of the art tech, that is classified, just seems awesome to me!
I applied for a js dev job at Automatic a week or so ago. That would certainly be a step in the right direction. 😊

Where did I go wrong?
