The best practice for a SWE to use a local LLM for coding.

Generative AI MLOps

I am a. Net developer (also large experience with SQL and JS, studying Python) with 7+ years of experience on a number of projects. I am considering switching to MLOps on the verge of. Net and Python. I don't want to lose my edge and I like coding and arhitecture. I have a PC with 5070 Rtx 12Gb so it is kind of limited. I am experimenting with models qwen3.5:9b and qwen3.5:35b-a3b with 32K context for now.
