What’s going on here?
I think I may have some postural issues, what do you all see going on here? The first photos are my natural posture, the next set is with intentional improvement.

Hamstring stretching peculiarities
I’m having trouble with my lower and mid-back while stretching my hamstrings. It wants to round!
Photos 1 and 3 are me attempting to keep my entire back straight. In photos 1 and 2 I am attempting to hold a straddle, but I can’t get to a vertical lower back. My sitting bones or whatever they’re called aren’t really flat on the ground either.
Should I be engaging my core more? More consciously keeping my back straight?
Also, my hamstrings have always been extremely tight while the rest of my body is pretty average.
What’s going on here?
(Lmk if this is a dumb post cuz i see people are downvoting it…)

Engineer fresh out of college
I’m about to graduate with a degree in Manufacturing and Design Engineering in the US. I like hands on work, not necessarily related to my major. I love climbing and have been interested in rope access for a while. I’m cool with working odd jobs and odd hours. I like <30 hr work weeks, and I don’t care too much about the money.
Any advice on where to get started and what direction to shoot for from people who have been in the field for a while?
