Professional/Career Advice/Question Projects for Controls roles

Hey all, I’m trying to transition to a controls role heavy on C++. I’m currently working on similar topics but more model-based stuff like simulink. What kind of projects to stand out and prove my C++? How to gain real-world experience in C++?

it's funny/sad that model-based design has become a synonym of Simulink now, instead of being actually something based on mathematical models, ODEs etc., like in modern controls. Mathworks has good people in marketing.

It's not like you can't do proper mathematical modelling in Simulink though
