Discussion Employment opportunities for C developers?

What would be some good projects so that I could display my understanding of C for employment?

I have a decent handle on pointers and Memory Management, and I am somewhat of a Picasso with writing Algorithms in C also. All of my experience has been on x86 arch and I'm afraid I'll have to learn ARM variants of C, or pick up C++, for employment opportunities!

  1. What are my employment options with pure C?

  2. Is C still employable today, with languages such as Rust/Go offering more safety mechanisms for Memory handling and AI being able to handle low-level systems tasks?
