How does one get into the fintech industry?

I am a computer systems engineering student proficient in AI, Data Science, and Data Analysis. I often find myself engaged in conversations about the finance and investment industry, despite having limited exposure to it.

Given my interest in finance and technical skills in information technology, I have seriously considered entering the field of fintech. However, I am uncertain about the path to take.

Do you have any advice on how to get started in fintech?
