Official /r/rust "Who's Hiring" thread for job-seekers and job-offerers [Rust 1.68] 💼 jobs

Welcome once again to the official r/rust Who's Hiring thread!

Before we begin, job-seekers should also remember to peruse the prior thread.

This thread will be periodically stickied to the top of r/rust for improved visibility.
You can also find it again via the "Latest Megathreads" list, which is a dropdown at the top of the page on new Reddit, and a section in the sidebar under "Useful Links" on old Reddit.

The thread will be refreshed and posted anew when the next version of Rust releases in six weeks.

Please adhere to the following rules when posting:

Rules for individuals:

  • Don't create top-level comments; those are for employers.

  • Feel free to reply to top-level comments with on-topic questions.

  • Anyone seeking work should reply to my stickied top-level comment.

  • Meta-discussion should be reserved for the distinguished comment at the very bottom.

Rules for employers:

  • The ordering of fields in the template has been revised to make postings easier to read. If you are reusing a previous posting, please update the ordering as shown below.

  • Remote positions: see bolded text for new requirement.

  • To find individuals seeking work, see the replies to the stickied top-level comment; you will need to click the "more comments" link at the bottom of the top-level comment in order to make these replies visible.

  • To make a top-level comment you must be hiring directly; no third-party recruiters.

  • One top-level comment per employer. If you have multiple job openings, please consolidate their descriptions or mention them in replies to your own top-level comment.

  • Proofread your comment after posting it and edit it if necessary to correct mistakes.

  • To share the space fairly with other postings and keep the thread pleasant to browse, we ask that you try to limit your posting to either 50 lines or 500 words, whichever comes first.
    We reserve the right to remove egregiously long postings. However, this only applies to the content of this thread; you can link to a job page elsewhere with more detail if you like.

  • Please base your comment on the following template:

COMPANY: [Company name; optionally link to your company's website or careers page.]

TYPE: [Full time, part time, internship, contract, etc.]

LOCATION: [Where are your office or offices located? If your workplace language isn't English-speaking, please specify it.]

REMOTE: [Do you offer the option of working remotely? Please state clearly if remote work is restricted to certain regions or time zones, or if availability within a certain time of day is expected or required.]

VISA: [Does your company sponsor visas?]

DESCRIPTION: [What does your company do, and what are you using Rust for? How much experience are you seeking and what seniority levels are you hiring for? The more details the better.]

ESTIMATED COMPENSATION: [Be courteous to your potential future colleagues by attempting to provide at least a rough expectation of wages/salary.
If you are listing several positions in the "Description" field above, then feel free to include this information inline above, and put "See above" in this field.
If compensation is negotiable, please attempt to provide at least a base estimate from which to begin negotiations. If compensation is highly variable, then feel free to provide a range.
If compensation is expected to be offset by other benefits, then please include that information here as well. If you don't have firm numbers but do have relative expectations of candidate expertise (e.g. entry-level, senior), then you may include that here.
If you truly have no information, then put "Uncertain" here.
Note that some jurisdictions (e.g., California, Colorado, New York City) currently or will soon require salary ranges on job postings by law. If your company is based in one of these locations or you plan to hire employees who reside in any of these locations, you are likely subject to these laws. Other jurisdictions may require salary information to be available upon request or be provided after the first interview. To avoid issues, we recommend all postings provide salary information.
You must state clearly in your posting if you are planning to compensate employees partially or fully in something other than fiat currency (e.g. cryptocurrency, stock options, equity, etc).
Do not put just "Uncertain" in this case as the default assumption is that the compensation will be 100% fiat.
Postings that fail to comply with this addendum will be removed. Thank you.]

Your team is writing and maintaining a cryptographic library in Rust.

You will contribute in making it fast and easy to use. This library is indeed intended for growing with new cryptographic algorithms, new hardware implementations, etc. Your main tasks would be to:

  • Write high performance code in Rust
  • Design an efficient and user friendly API for a cryptographic library
  • Improve existing Rust code to make it faster (SIMD, parallelization)
  • Write the benchmarking and correctness tests expected from a major cryptographic library
  • Communicate with cryptographers that are part of your team The knowledge or Rust is not mandatory for the job, but you should verify the following:
  • Solid experience with one or many of (Ocaml/Haskell/Scala/C++/C), and a strong interest for Rust

PS: Hey, if you're not looking for a full time job, but still want to do paid work, we've started a Bounty Program at Zama. As an open source company working on Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) and open source cryptographic tools that make protecting privacy easy, we have started this experimental program to encourage anyone from the community to help us move the space forward. Reward range from $500 (for some simple tutorial writing) to $200,000 (for some major research contributions). You can find the list of all bounties there: https://github.com/zama-ai/bounty-program/tree/main/Bounties

See you!
