To piggyback this comment, does anyone know of any co's building something interesting mainly w/ the C programming language (and maybe even w/ Rust)? Also, that are usually open to interns/entry level programmers?
It's fairly common for folks doing embedded work. What are you interested in?
At the moment, I don't know. Do you any resources where one maybe may possible find something one would be interested in, in the C programming language domain? I've not thoroughly looked into compilers (i.e. LVMM) and operating systems but IIRC, they both went over my head.
I don't know about companies, but the linux kernels is C, git is written in C.
