Description

Job Title: Staff Rust Developer

We’re looking for an experienced Rust Developer to lead the creation of high-performance parsing engines, data structures, and algorithms. In this role, you’ll drive Rust projects that form the backbone of our solutions, collaborating closely with other teams to ensure smooth integration across our technology stack (Rust and Python).

What You Will Do

• Project Leadership: Initiate and drive the development of mission-critical Rust projects from conception through deployment.
• Performance Engineering: Write and optimize parsing code with a strong emphasis on performance, supported by automated benchmarking.
• Data Structures & Algorithms: Design and implement efficient data structures for automata, finite-state machines, text-based indexing/search, and serialization.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work with Python developers to integrate Rust components using Rust Python bindings.
• Tooling & CI/CD: Utilize advanced profiling, debugging, and continuous integration tools to maintain and enhance code quality.

About You 

• Proven Rust Experience: Demonstrated ability to lead and contribute to non-trivial, collaborative Rust projects.
• Dual-Language Proficiency: Strong skills in Python and hands-on experience with Rust/Python bindings.
• High-Performance Development: A track record in developing high-performance data structures and parsing technologies.
• Tooling Expertise: Experience with robust profiling, debugging, and CI tooling in a dynamic development environment.
• Collaborative Mindset: Excellent communication skills and a proactive approach, ideally suited for an early-stage startup culture.

Why You Should Join Us:

• Cutting-edge technology

Structured generation is still a nascent technology. Innovation is not the exception, it’s the rule.

• Work-life balance

We don’t expect you to spend 80 hours per week at your desk, and we won’t either. We have lives outside of work, and want you too as well. Sometimes we will all need to be all-in, but it will be the exception rather than the norm.

• Remote first

Work from anywhere in the world. We have a culture of written communication, and favor infrequent organic discussions over regular large team meetings.

• Competitive compensation and benefits

We pay market rate (adjusting for seed-stage startup) + equity options, offer health and dental insurance, and have a 401k (US Only). We’ll get you a GPU if you don’t have one already.
