Be ready for the opportunity. Get experience with the alternatives. Study event based architectures like the "Kappa Approach" (great presentation - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cJ565r2FVI), install Apache Kafka and build something with it.
The world is slowly coming around to a better way. There are definitely jobs out there, mostly in the start up world, but even enterprise is making a shift, too.
I spent many years building many iterations of an event based platform as a side project (the most recent is https://unifyjs.io/) and am now living the dream - working part time as Head of Technology for a funded startup building an event based platform using Apache Kafka. The opportunity materialised and I was ready for it.
You are a kindred spirit! Don't lose faith, there are better ways than CRUD, and we're getting there slowly!
