I guess that I didn't make it clear, I have extensive experience with assembly and every internship I did in college dealt with it. I also have some OS level experience in my internships. My hobby OS is going to have network stuff as well. My problem is I have no idea where (what companies?) to be applying to jobs with and not how to get experience in this area on my own.

That I cannot help with. There are numerous smaller companies producing micro controllers for various different kinds of hardware. The low level magic that you are building your career around is very different population than where I live as a form JavaScript guy. In my world it has become almost impossible to get an interview by applying to a company directly. There are just too many people and most of them are not even remote qualified and those that are still probably aren't very good. So, everybody is reliant upon recruiters to serve as match makers. I suspect your world is exceedingly different because its a high barrier of entry and the people who do that kind of work tend to be better educated. Maybe try completing a profile on major job boards like dics.com and indeed. That way companies can be searching for you while you are searching for companies to apply to.

  Good ideas! Thanks for the suggestions. The thing I would say is that I think a step into the embedded world is quite tangible for me, but I want to be working on more of the datacenter wired/high-speed networks. I suppose the best places to look would be network hardware companies, then.
