There are all different types of programming "companies" / "jobs". Many programmers work for companies that need customization and support of business systems related to their business management or industry needs.
For example, oil and gas companies need tons of programming done related to oil and gas production, forecasting, financials, and so on. All types of companies need programming support to help with accounting, staffing, or their website(s).
Then there are programming companies that develop software products. Some of those are business-to-business software products that specialize in solving large business problems. Others develop software for sale to consumers, such as gaming companies, etc.
If you are a one-person independent programmer, a lot of times your assignments will be web design, data migration, or perhaps doing sales/trend analysis.
I spent most of my career identifying fraud, automating business processes, and programming computer management scripts for backups, security, and monitoring.
The list of what programmers do and why businesses need programmers is endless.

Step 1: Learn to program very well. Not just SoloLearn, which is just an introduction to programming. Many programming jobs require more than one skill. Work really hard to learn all you can in those related technologies.
Step 2: Be able to write useful apps. You choose the language and types of applications you want. Whether you are a database programmer, mobile app developer, or web designer, be prepared to write several useful apps that demonstrate your skills. Put all that together in an online portfolio so people can see what you can do. GitHub, or whatever.
Step 3: Start promoting your capabilities on places like fiverr.com, upwork.com, or other freelancer sites. Do a few cheap projects to get a few accomplishments under your belt. Then do larger ones.
Your career plan depends on the type of thing you are doing. For example, if you build mobile games, that's very different than if you build ecommerce sites.
Some people will become experts in a single area. For example, within the world of ecommerce, you could become a Shopify consultant and only do programming related to implementing Shopify shopping carts.
Just get really good at something and start promoting yourself on freelancer sites. That's the short answer.
