One of the most salient features of our Tech Hiring culture is that there is so much bullshit. Everyone knows this. Each of us contributes his share. But we tend to take the situation for granted.
My concern is that if I present myself as a $TECH developer and gets that job, then both the company and I will end up being not very happy.
I would rather explicitly focus on companies that find my multiple areas of interest valuable.
Iβve billed myself as a member of a software swat team. I havenβt worked in any specific technology for more than a few months at a time and Iβm thrown onto a different scrum group every couple sprints to aid with our companyβs most pressing issue at the moment. The reactions have been very positive for the employers who value that type of flexibility.
Working in Azure Cloud, ladder logic in PLCβs, C in microcontrollers, Swift and JavaScript within 3 sprints isnβt very common, but I get to tout that this has been my life for years now. :)

I didn't know this concept of SWAT team.
I googled it and found SWAT Team, a Pattern for Overloaded, Multi-project Organizations
Looks a lot like what I would like to do.
Thanks for giving a name to my concerns :)
