Hacker News is just the wrong place to look. This is essentially a web dev site. Just use linked in or zip recruiter or whatever. There are tons of positions for embedded now, same trouble hiring as everyone else, and often they’re open to anyone with software experience, you don’t need to know the difference between Vdd and Vcc or how to use an oscilloscope, though obviously employers would prefer you did. (Well, forget the first one, Vdd vs Vcc is essentially trivia)
