Career Pivot Options

Hey everyone! I’m a first year analyst within a BB private bank in a HCOL city. It’s a good job with solid comp for not being IB and WLB isn’t bad like 50hrs on average. However, I’m more interested in something a bit more technical. I think if I did sales I would want to be in tech haha. Is there anything within reason I can pivot towards while I’m still young in my career within finance or outside the industry?
