The market for engineers goes far beyond even those kinds of tech companies as well. Healthcare, finance, logistics, manufacturers, retailers - there are tons of companies out there who need software engineers. These are the opportunities people hear less about.

Yeah and those jobs to me are great first jobs and can be great jobs in general, just not what I call "solid tech SWE jobs". This companies have been hiring engineers for years and haven't changed that. Hiring ebbs and flows depending on the market, just like anything else. Banks doing fine with high interests hired a little more. Healthcare is hiring as more stuff moves online. These things go up and down and my point is there is no magical change in the world that results in those companies hiring more engineers now for jobs that didn't exist before .
