I did Linux kernel work for a decade at my old company. Left due to low pay.

Also worried about my employability. Not much call for C programmers in 2022. You’ll always fear losing your job.

I love low level though, I do embedded projects for fun! I can probably sling back-end Python for 1.5x the salary. I wish embedded payed better, but it doesn’t and therefore I won’t help alleviate this “shortage”.

If you are ever looking for C opportunities, my team would probably like to be aware of you when the hiring freeze is over. We work on next-generation volatile and non-volatile storage projects including an open-source storage engine.
