  • Establish the foundational Rust stack, development patterns, CI/CD pipelines, and best practices for the entire organization.
  • Drive application performance optimization by identifying and solving bottlenecks, with a focus on CPU/memory efficiency and safe concurrency.
  • Troubleshoot complex design flaws and system-level issues to guarantee the stability and resilience of our most critical services.
  • Champion a culture of quality and security through rigorous code reviews, providing constructive feedback and ensuring the highest engineering standards.
  • Implement robust observability from the ground up based on OpenTelemetry standards to ensure our services have premier monitoring and performance insights.
  • Act as the go-to expert for Rust, mentoring other engineers and guiding the technical direction of the practice.

What skills you'll need:


  • Minimum of 10 years of professional experience building high-throughput, low-latency distributed systems.
  • Proven, hands-on professional experience writing, deploying, and maintaining production services in Rust.
  • Deep understanding of systems design principles, memory management, and concurrency patterns.
  • Ability to write clean, efficient, and idiomatic Rust code with a strong focus on safety and performance.
  • Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS.
  • Solid experience with event-driven architecture design.
  • Well-versed in the full software development lifecycle and experienced with establishing CI/CD best practices.
  • Experience with modern observability practices and tooling adhering to OpenTelemetry standards.
  • Excellent ability to solve complex software system issues methodically.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills in English.
  • A collaborative mindset and leadership skills, with the ability to work effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.Optional but highly valued:
  • Professional experience in Go or Java for building large-scale, cloud-native applications is a significant plus.
