aim high, it doesn't just have to be a dumb desk engineering job either.
the effort doesn't just stop at reading hard books, if you just go for a programming job you're being lazy, and that's not why we're here on mathchan
it's not 'follow this hobby math curriculum and do a bunch of toy analysis proofs'
which is why our list doesn't look like a typical math or CS major, because it is not courses for courses' sake
it doesn't stop there, it continues in your work - if you know theoretical physics and a base of mathematics, you could be doing literally anything
it would be lazy and shameful to stop there
you should be working on something big and important, gather experience in a different field, transform it with mathematics, start your own company
anything less is a waste

I aim trying to aim high anon. This curriculumn looked difficult. So should I start with sheafification?

Almost all the recommendations there are great. It recommends first getting proficient at single- and multivariable calculus before moving onto analysis but I prefer books that treat both simultaneously, like Amann and Escher's three-book analysis series.

Even Urs Schreiber approves of the /mg/ curriculum:
