Experienced professional, should I do a boot camp?

A bootcamp probably doesn't make sense, I think the easiest thing to do would be to try to transition more into SWE at your current company. Try to meet SWE managers and see if you can get a shot at a lower level SWE role. I would also look at "career accelerators": [Formation.dev](https://Formation.dev) (disclosure: co-founder), Interview Kickstart, Pathrise. These are intended to help you level up your career rather than carerr change entirely. If your gaps are too large for these programs, then I would CONSIDER a bootcamp, but really transitioning in your own company and being supported doing that, is ideal.
