Rust Jobs for Rustaceans

About the Role
Lead Rust Software Developer for mission‐critical embedded systems. Fully onsite schedule with a 9/80 work pattern and every other Friday off. Serve as a technical leader guiding Rust adoption, legacy conversion, and best practices across product lines.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead adoption of Rust across embedded development, including standards, patterns, tooling, and code reviews.
• Convert or integrate legacy C/C++ software into Rust while ensuring memory‐safe architectures.
• Translate requirements into maintainable software for C5 and cyber solution domains.
• Collaborate with cross‐functional teams to design and evaluate hardware–software interfaces and system performance.
• Contribute to all SDLC phases: requirements, design, implementation, HW/SW integration, and formal testing.
• Investigate complex issues, determine root causes, and implement robust fixes independently or with multi‐discipline teams.
• Develop software test plans, procedures, and technical documentation.
• Use modeling tools and lab equipment to gather operating data, run experiments, prototype, and evaluate results.
• Participate in peer reviews, track defects, and ensure timely remediation.
• Develop embedded software primarily in Rust, with additional contributions in C/C++ and Python on RTOS platforms such as VxWorks, Linux, and Integrity.

Requirements:

• Active DoD Secret Clearance.
• Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
• 3+ years of production Rust development with deep language expertise.
• 8+ years of embedded software development.
• Professional experience with C/C++ and object‐oriented design.
• Proven embedded systems development experience on RTOS or embedded Linux.
• Excellent oral and written communication skills.

Preferred skills:

• Hands‐on conversion of C/C++ codebases to Rust.
• Rust for embedded targets and real‐time systems.
• Object‐oriented design with exposure to UML/modeling tools such as IBM Rhapsody or MagicDraw/Cameo.
• Device driver and BSP development for real‐time embedded systems.
• Information Assurance and cryptography experience.
• Experience with software certifications such as NSA Type 1 or DO‐178.
