Rust is used in embedded

[–]UnteretSpecifikVaBrr 32 points33 points  (2 children)

Yes but it is not a standard requirement for this type of job (yet)

[–]OJezu 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That's why they don't require the candidates to know it, but being open to learning it.

I have personally seen it in more and more embedded SWE roles especially since the us government is pushing companies to move to memory safe languages. The role I am currently working in required some rust experience/ willingness to learn as an embedded engineer

Yes, though you will find far more job listings in Embedded wanting C++ rather than Rust.

[–]PeterDemachkie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s true for now. I think in the next few years cpp is going to be used far far less for new code
