Embedded systems, consoles and mobile phones come to mind as well.

All the embedded systems I've worked in have many languages you can use to compile whatever, burn, and run whatever you like. Consoles run game engines and programs written in all sorts of different languages. They don't care as long as they can execute the binary. Phones can run apps using many different languages (C, C++, Rust, Python, etc.).
