contribute to opensource. companies care about distributed systems at the moment, so if you can contribute to something like kafka https://kafka.apache.org/project or a popular wrapper https://github.com/dpkp/kafka-python, or a distributed systems platform https://github.com/redpanda-data/redpanda, that would be a strong signal that you can provide value and work with others as you deliver code.

Librdkafka – the Apache Kafka C/C++ client library

I've been working on a pure-Racket Kafka client[1] off and on (for fun) since February and it's a good amount of work. When the official protocol docs and Wireshark fail me, I usually look at librdkafka and kafka-python[2] to figure out how things are supposed to fit together. Kudos to the authors of both libraries for writing code that's easy to follow!
