I worked for several companies: DEC and DSCCC for Telephony, IBM for Nuke Plants, DEC again for steel mills, Skybox, Planet Labs and Kubos for satellite, RSADSI for ATMs. Once people know you have embedded on your resume it's easier to get the next embedded job. But embedded work is thin and I've done a bit of web plumbing (reverse proxies, net controls, "converged" communication, etc.)

I've been lucky to avoid the "web framework of the hour" grind... and for the most part work on heisenbugs in net plumbing. Fortunately that part of the stack will invest a little time to avoid serious problems. But their timelines are shrinking to "just long enough to sell the company and it's IP" or about 5 years.
