Speaking as an Australian that works on React CRUD applications because there's nothing else in the market, I've been reading through this thread thinking the exact same thing.

Google had some position open working on the kernel for ChromeOS, and Microsoft had some positions working on data center network drivers.
I applied for both and got ghosted, haha.
I also saw a government role as a security researcher. Involves reverse engineering, ghidra and that sort of thing. Super awesome - but the pay is extremely uncompetitive. Such a shame.
Other than that, the most interesting roles are in finance (like HFT) - where you need to juggle memory allocations, threads and use C++ (hoping I can pitch Rust but unlikely).
Sadly they have a reputation of having pretty rough cultures, uncompetitive salaries and it's all in-office
