I switched from being a SWE of ~10 years to a Research Engineer at DeepMind, so while it is difficult (as other comments have noted), it is absolutely doable. I wrote a blog post about it here: [EDIT: fixed] https://medium.com/@kfedvanilla/switching-from-software-engi.... Happy to answer any specific questions you may have beyond what's in the blog!
