Hi everybody,
I guess a short introduction is in order, so:
I'm 30, I work as an engineer (and in general a computer scientist) in an IT company, dealing mostly with telecom hardware, software and electromagnetism (antennas, radio equipment, signal analyzers, scripting languages to make them all work together etc.).
I'm a part time programmer (C++ and Python) and an amateur writer.
Finally and perhaps foremost of all - I'm an avid gamer and member of the (sic!) PCmasterrace.
In other words, I use keyboards a lot, both at work and privately.
I'm hoping to finally build my own custom keyboard because, of all the models I had in ~25 years of using the devices, I have yet to find one that will suit me perfectly.
The internet doesn't have the answers for me so here I am.

Welcome to Geekhack!
That's quite a range of pastimes! Keyboards, unfortunately, can get expensive, so I have you have some spare funds ;)
A good place to start reading if you want to design your own keyboard is the making stuff together (https://geekhack.org/index.php?board=117.0) section.
