Rust Jobs for Rustaceans

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and maintain compiler components and internal compiler representations.
• Analyze and extend complex transpilers that convert legacy languages to modern languages (e.g., TypeScript, Java).
• Collaborate with engineering and product teams to ensure accurate translation of legacy functionality.
• Optimize code generation and translation with awareness of hardware-software integration.
• Troubleshoot, debug, and proactively improve compiler performance and correctness.
• Analyze complex code paths, fix compiler crashes, and optimize slow compilation or generated code.

Requirements:

• Proven experience in compiler development or transpiler design.
• Strong knowledge of internal compiler structures, language parsing, and code generation.
• Strong grasp of graph algorithms, tree traversals, and other compiler-relevant patterns.
• Able to implement performant algorithms for static analysis, type inference, and code optimization.
• Proficiency in at least one low-level language (e.g., assembly).
• Ability to understand and work with legacy enterprise languages.
• Strong coding skills with a focus on clean, efficient, and maintainable code.
• Effective communicator and team collaborator.
• Understanding of how high-level code maps to low-level instructions and performance tuning at that level.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Advanced degree in Computer Science with a focus on compilers or programming languages in C/C++, Rust, or other system-level languages.
• Experience with OCaml, TypeScript, or other statically typed languages with type inference.
• Understanding of legacy enterprise languages (COBOL, Fortran, etc.) is valuable in transpiler or modernization work.
• Contributions to compiler-related academic research or open-source projects.
• Understanding of modern software architecture and system-level programming.

Education:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, IS, or related technical discipline
• Advanced degree, such as Master’s in Computer Science, preferred
