Networking and Infrastructure are the backbone on which all other digital fields function.
They’re not flashy, but they’re vital to keeping everything running. If you’re the sort of person who feels a great sense of reward in seeing a lot of green lights and enjoying a cup of tea while a system works, this field is for you. Naturally, if the system stops working at 3am, you'll also want to be able to fix it – but, if you designed and built it correctly, it didn't break completely, right?
