We’re hiring a Senior Rust Engineer to build next-generation open-source developer tools that span the full software development lifecycle, from reproducible builds to cloud deployment.
This is a chance to work on real infrastructure challenges and help shape tools that empower thousands of developers. You’ll be writing production-grade Rust, working closely with the open-source community, and solving hard technical problems around package management, build systems, and environment management.
What You’ll Do
- Lead development on foundational components in Rust
- Design and implement scalable, reliable systems for developer workflows
- Work at the intersection of packaging, build tooling (e.g. Nix, Bazel), and system deployment
- Collaborate with both internal teams and open-source contributors
- Help shape the roadmap of a rapidly evolving toolchain
What We’re Looking For
- Strong Rust development experience and systems-level thinking
- Hands-on experience with build tools like Nix, Bazel, Cargo, or CMake
- Attention to detail, with a focus on performance and correctness
- Strong written communication skills — especially in open-source contexts
- Ability to work autonomously while contributing to a highly collaborative team
- Passion for improving the developer experience
What’s on Offer
- Compensation: €80,000 – €110,000 depending on experience
- Remote: Work from anywhere in the EU
- Influence: Own key projects and help shape the future of the ecosystem
- Impact: Build tools that directly affect how developers build, test, and ship code
- Team: Join a small, high-trust team of experienced engineers who value pragmatism and clean design
