Ask HN: Similar to HN but aimed at Embedded Systems?

14 points by aprdm ↗ HN
Hello, I am from Brazil and I am looking for a similar HN site but aimed towards Embedded Systems.

I saw the who is hiring post and it's awesome! But 99% of the jobs listed there are for web/mobile development.

Anyone?

Perhaps you should make one? I've seen comments across HN that go into more embedded-y stuff, i.e. people remarking on ARM based systems, etc. I'm also an embedded guy and browse HN quite often.

That's a great idea! Unfortunately I am more a FPGA and C guy. Would'nt know how to do a decent one I guess.

http://lobste.rs is very similar to HN and open source under a BSD licence. I'd be very interested in an embedded/electronics themed site and would be willing to help/lead with the creation of it if there was enough interest.

It's not a web site, but I would recommend subscribing to Jack Ganssle's Embedded News e-mail newsletter: http://www.ganssle.com/tem-subunsub.html . There are usually one or two job postings in each issue.

Also check out the podcasts at Embedded.fm and TheAmpHour.com . They both talk about a range of embedded topics and occasionally mention job opportunities.
