Rust Jobs for Rustaceans

About SensitHaptics
SensitHaptics builds the leading haptics technology for immersive gaming and professional sim racing. Our proprietary Metahaptics technology combines real-time data processing, low-latency audio/haptics generation and tightly integrated hardware control to deliver industry-leading immersion.

Our software stack runs close to the system, processes telemetry and simulation data in real time, and drives haptic hardware with extremely low latency. This is not a typical app role. It is systems engineering applied to gaming.

About the Role
We are looking for an experienced software engineer to work on our Windows-based core software stack.

You will maintain and extend existing simulation integrations and implement new ones end-to-end. You will work primarily in Rust, with occasional React work for UI adjustments (~90% Rust / systems work and ~10% UI).

You will operate with a high degree of independence and ownership.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, implement and maintain real-time, low-latency software components in Rust
• Process and analyze live data streams from simulations and games (UDP, shared memory, custom protocols)
• Implement low-level audio and haptics signal generation
• Develop and optimize multi-threaded systems with strict latency and stability requirements
• Maintain and extend existing Windows-only implementations; build new integrations independently
• Write integration and end-to-end tests for complex, real-time systems
• Help maintain and improve the CI/CD pipeline
• Occasionally implement small UI changes in React (Tauri frontend)
• Collect feedback from the community and incorporate it into feature improvements

Our Tech Stack

• Rust (core systems, real-time processing)
• Tauri with React frontend
• Low-level audio / haptics generation
• Real-time data ingestion (UDP, shared memory, proprietary protocols)
• Multithreaded programming
• Turso / SQLite
• Mono-repository
• Windows (primary and currently only supported platform)

Requirements:

• Professional Rust experience, or 5+ years with compiled languages (C/C++/C#/ Zig etc.)
• Deep understanding of multithreading, concurrency models and synchronization
• Strong intuition for low-latency systems and performance trade-offs
• Experience with integration and E2E testing in non-trivial systems
• Comfortable working on Windows-specific software
• High level of independence, reliability and engineering discipline

Strong Plus Points

• Experience with sim racing, racing telemetry or simulation data
• Windows driver or low-level Windows API experience, especially related to audio
• Deep understanding of Windows system internals
• Background in audio engineering, DSP or haptics
• Experience building performance-critical desktop applications

Benefits

• Work on real systems software, not CRUD or dashboards
• Ownership over critical parts of a market-leading haptics platform
• Extremely short decision paths and direct collaboration with founders and hardware teams
• Hybrid work setup with flexibility
• A product used by highly demanding, technically sophisticated users
• No hype, no politics, no bullshit – just hard engineering problems

If you enjoy low-level systems work, care about latency, and want to build software that people can physically feel, we want to hear from you.
