This is the kind of work I wish I could get into. But alas, I seem to have become just another python developer.


Curious, why do you say that? I code primarily in Python but don't think that of myself. Could you elaborate?


Well, the position advertised is embedded programming in C/C++. Very much hardware-oriented. It's an area I'd love to get into but my career has evolved to be mostly automation-related Python coding. I don't routinely write enough C to claim expertise any more. Positions like this (especially at big well-known companies like Apple) also require a lot of domain experience, which can be difficult to get without pushing reset on your career and starting at the bottom again.
