The end of this three-part Tour of Duty will mark the end of your time as a Software Product Generalist; however, you will have the opportunity to either continue your career at Cobalt (based on your interests, what you've learned, and your performance over the past two years) or continue your career elsewhere, taking the comprehensive training and knowledge you gained at Cobalt with you.
