Most places I've worked at really do want to hire a diverse group of engineers. At one company, one of the managers was asked by his manager to hire e.g. more black women. His response was "you show me one, and I will hire her". Personally, I'd like more women in the field as well. I wouldn't mind working somewhere where, I don't know, even 1 out of 3 people were women, instead of 1/10. But I think availability has a lot to do with it.
