I did backend development (typescript, graphql, prisma) and devops (kubernetes, terraform, gcp, aws) for two years. I started at 40$/h then finished at 75$/h (100$/h for short contracts).
I honestly got burned out by context switching (which I needed to do to fill my week). And it was somewhat easy to find contracts at 75$/h (I consider I am senior level) so I would consider either charging more or billing more hours (both of which I was not good at).

Based in Canada.
How can you find jobs in Canada. I have been trying to find some side cnosulting work but i am not sure which avenues to start from.
Have you done work in Python/Django?
I dont like big frameworks like django, I worked with python and flask in the past. Why?
I know of opportunities for django/python development.
