Skill guide

What to know about Rust

Rust is a systems programming language focused on memory safety without a garbage collector, enforced at compile time by its ownership and borrowing rules. Teams use it for high-performance services, command-line tools, WebAssembly, embedded software, blockchain infrastructure and replacements for C or C++ components. Hiring well means checking real fluency with lifetimes, traits, error handling with Result, and async runtimes such as Tokio. Ask candidates when they consider unsafe code justified and how they keep compile times and dependency trees under control on a growing codebase.

Vetting

How we vet Rust engineers

Each Rust engineer goes through a profile review of their CV, code and past systems, followed by a communication check to confirm they can discuss design decisions clearly with your team. A senior engineer then runs the technical interview: live coding plus a system design scenario covering API design, data modeling, concurrency, error handling, testing and how the candidate would scale or debug a service under load. Only the top 1.5% of applicants are accepted, so the profiles you see have already cleared that bar.

Typical engagements

Design and build new APIs and services for a product launch, working inside your repositories and review process
Break a slow or fragile part of a monolith into a well-tested service
Pay down back-end debt: upgrade frameworks, add test coverage, fix slow queries and improve observability
