Transition from Support to Development profile

I am reaching out to share my career aspirations and seek your guidance and support. With over 6 years of experience in the telecom domain, I have been working in technical support for 4G core nodes, where I’ve gained expertise in troubleshooting, deployment, integration. I am now looking to transition into a C/C++ development role. Although I don’t have professional experience in development, I have been actively learning and practicing C/C++ programming in my personal time, I am actively seeking opportunities to transition into a C/C++ development role and would greatly appreciate any leads, referrals, or advice you may have.
