A fast-growing, well-funded AI platform company is hiring a senior Rust engineer to help build out the data infrastructure powering their agentic AI platform. This one's for someone who wants to come into a system that's already in production, decide what's worth keeping and what needs a rebuild, and actually own that call.
You'll be working on the data management, ingestion, and integrations side of the house, think database schemas, data pipelines, microservices, and connectors, all built in Rust. There's also real crossover with the team building out agentic memory and orchestration, so if you've got an itch to work on cutting edge agent infrastructure, this is a rare seat to do it from.
The engineering culture here is genuinely engineering led. No top down roadmap dictation, teams propose what needs building and go build it. If that sounds like the kind of autonomy you've been chasing, keep reading.
What you'll need: - Serious Rust experience, not just familiarity, ideally a few years deep at the systems level
- Comfort across high performance systems, distributed systems, and general feature/web work in Rust
- Strong database and data management background, this matters more than observability or QA tooling experience
- Experience building microservices and integrations that tie multiple data sources together
- The confidence to look at an existing system and say "this part stays, this part gets rebuilt" and back that judgment
- Startup experience where you owned technical direction is a plus
