There are many public sector organizations that need programming done. There are also organizations that back FOSS work. However, if it can’t involve devops, cloud, or containers, I don’t know how much will be left for you to do. There are tasks that don’t involve those, but they’re few and far between. And anybody who said those aren’t part of “REAL programming” wouldn’t get a second listen from me in a hiring scenario.
