I’m glad you posted this. Although my situation differs from your in many ways, it is similar in that I do not have many of the signals of EA alignment, and I also have experience in operations management. I’ve considered writing something similar, but I think that anything I say on this issue would have a perception of “this is person is bitter/frustrated because they aren’t getting a job they want.”
Thanks for your feedback, indeed I was concerned that I would be perceived as bitter and I hope I mitigated that by explicitly stating the opposite, which is true. I’m fortunate to have the time to commit to volunteering and integration into the movement, and if I don’t find a workable place for myself I have a previous career to go back to, so really the intention really just is to inform and discuss.
