The Tech Worker's Exit Plan
A 12-Month Guide to Leaving Tech for a Stable, AI-Proof Career
A 12-month, step-by-step path out of tech into stable, AI-resistant work without starting over or going broke.
Who it’s for: Burned-out or laid-off tech workers eyeing the exits; anyone whose role feels AI-exposed.
What’s inside
- Leaving tech isn't starting over — 80% of your skills transfer; the trick is the translation layer
- The AI-exposure test: 5 questions that tell you how safe your role really is
- 12 months is enough runway to change careers without touching your emergency fund
- The salary cut is smaller than you fear and the sanity raise is bigger
Written for the moment when: layoff whiplash; AI anxiety; golden handcuffs; identity tied to tech.
