Senior Unity developer interested in starting C++ development

Hello! I am a senior Unity developer, I've been workin with C# for almost 6 years and am very proud of my skills. However, I work mostly in the game industry and the pay is not very... appropriate. I want to develop different kinds of softwares, such as video editors, desktop tools, audio VSTs... and it seems like C++ is the most appropriate language for me to go into, also considering I used to code in SDL + OpenGL back in 2010 (nothing professional, I was just a kid playing with it).


Is it possible for me to find a job in the area? As a brazilian professional not so young (31yo), how likely it is for me to find a job that would allow me to dive into C++? Is it worth it? Or should I just stick to what I already know and do best and leave C++ as a hobby of mine? I want to get closer to the hardware coding, I even tried some Assembly 6502 just for fun and it was really interesting for me. But is it worth the effort?
