I assumed since it wasn't in the skill list on your profile (I'm on mobile so apologies if it is there and I can't see it) that you didn't know anything about it. So I guess my next comment is add to the skill list all the ubiquitous technologies you know but thought weren't necessary to enumerate.

But definitely good to provide a GitHub link in your resume, I don't usually make a decision based on reading the code, but showing it is a positive in my mind.

One possibility is that the code is just really bad. Anyway, most of what I’ve written is either private or not my property.

Might be worth adding more Python stuff to your Github then. But for sure add more stuff to your skill list, to tick more boxes for the automated searches that recruiters do.

And I'm not sure what type of work you're interested in, but Madison seems to have at least somewhat of a startup scene, so I'm sure there are plenty of startups that would hire you, even if you aren't hired in as a developer/engineer, you could likely move into that role, and restart your technical career trajectory.
