Also, if you’re not already, you should get into writing Rust. The powerful type system and safety is incredible. The build tooling and ecosystem is much better than C++ et al. Rust for embedded is not there yet, but improving all the time.

Meh, maybe in a decade. ROS has no official support for it either. Robotics is still very much a C++ town and will probably remain as such for a long while as long as people remain stubbornly set in their ways. If you apply as a Rust only dev to a robotics company nobody will take you seriously.
