There doesn't seem to be a lot of open source development going on. But
there are companies using open source tools, or pieces of open source
tools in there development process and/or for closed source products.
The company I work at has some openings, although we lean toward
real-time embedded C experience. It helped me having Linux experience
when I applied here, because the primary development workstation is
Solaris, and I knew a bunch of the basic tools. We also use gcc as the
primary compiler for our products (targets of Solaris and vxWorks on
multiple processors.)
