Hey man, love hearing about this kind of stuff. Simply because I also went down that same path. This year actually. I had my final high school exam on the 27th of June and after a few months of hustling for interviews I landed a position at an aerospace consultancy company in Milan. I started on the 16th of September. Now I'm almost at 3 months into a job that I don't plan on leaving any time soon.
I'm currently working on a c#/c++ stack making windows apps for all devices, but I can see I'll likely get to work with react, node and go in the future too.

Self taught for the win.
Keep it up man.
Love to hear it!
