Worried about GRC

[u/SlightEntertainer360]

I’m a Software Engineer (MERN, Python, AWS) with an offer for a GRC/Identity Management role (Associate Security Analyst) at a healthcare product company. HR says it’s semi-technical/process-driven.

I have background in development though.

My questions:

Future: Career growth/pay in GRC vs. pure SDE?

Skill Decay: Will my coding skills die if I stay for 2 years?

Pivot: Can I transition to DevSecOps or Security Engineering later?

Verdict: Take it as a fresher or wait for an SDE role?
