Rust Jobs for Rustaceans

**Key Responsibilities: **
As a Senior Engineer, you will be working with other engineers to design, implement, and maintain web services that process API requests at scale with a focus on reliability, performance, and metrics/observability.
The role’s responsibilities require an ability to pursue solutions to problems independent of explicit guidance and adjust those solutions based on feedback or changing circumstances.

• Code Contribution: write high-quality web services and components in Rust that emphasize performance, reliability, maintainability, and readability.
• Code Ownership: design, implement, and maintain core web services and components with a drive to always improve and iterate towards the best practical solutions.
• Core Reasoning: draw on past experience, existing knowledge, research, and collaboration to avoid pitfalls and balance tradeoffs between solutions to maximize results.
• Collaboration: leverage strong communication skills to break down complex ideas into simple terms and demonstrate a knack for collaboration across a large group of engineers.

Requirements:

• You are a talented engineer who thrives in a collaborative and fast-paced environment.
• Have 5+ years of related professional experience using lower-level languages (any combination of the following, C/C++/Rust/Zig).
• Have experience building interpreters, virtual machines, and open-source libraries/SDKs.
• Have a solid understanding of WebAssembly(wasm) runtimes.
• Proven experience in learning new tools and applying that knowledge to maximize performance, safety, time to deliver, and overall quality of work.
• Have excellent verbal and written communication skills (i.e. can synthesize complex problems).
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or relevant experience.

Standout Experience:

• Worked at a developer infrastructure company (i.e. Stripe, Coinbase Cloud, MixPanel, etc.)
• Proficient in web and network protocols (HTTP, TLS, DNS) and monitoring tools (Prometheus, Grafana).
• Strong understanding of database engines (PostgreSQL, Clickhouse) and cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, Azure).
• Experienced with Kubernetes, Docker, and creating/maintaining CI/CD pipelines.
