If you are active duty, can you articulate the attributes of the type of job you want when you get out of the military?

I am still several years from retiring but I have already started to pursue some additional skill sets to aid in my transition which will hopefully take me into the IT sector (Cloud, Blockchain, AI, etc.). The attributes I am looking for in this new job would be flexibility and independence, such as a new start up or entrepreneurial type position ... I would like to get away from the rigidity of the DOD/military construct. Another important attribute would be location. After being told where to live for the past 17 years, I am looking forward to living somewhere I want and find a job that is close by so family interaction can be a priority.
