: I am a 33 year old Unix System Admin and am currently at a stage
: in my career where I have identified a change is needed in my career.

[skip]

: My question is:

: Is it possible at this stage of my life to transfer (by whatever
: means) to a purely programming role, considering my age,
: experience and education?

If you feel it nesseccary - you can try. There is even more strange
careers out there.

If you feel that you can do programmer's job and can make your employer
beleive it - you ARE programmer.
