Summary ✨ AI‑Generated

A technically demanding opportunity for a Senior Software Engineer to design and build fast, reliable distributed systems using Rust. The role focuses on low-latency and highly concurrent infrastructure, core services used by other engineering teams, and taking systems from initial design through production. You will investigate system behavior under real workloads on Linux and work deeply with algorithms, data structures, performance, and reliability. Strong systems engineering experience is valued, even if Rust is not your first programming language.

Highlights

Work on high-performance distributed systems with meaningful ownership, production-grade Rust, challenging concurrency and latency problems, and end-to-end responsibility from system design through production.

Description

Software Engineer (Rust) – London I'm working with a highly technical organisation in London that is looking for experienced Software Engineers to build fast, reliable distributed systems in Rust. What you'll be working on: Designing and building distributed systems where latency and concurrency really matterCreating core infrastructure other engineering teams depend onTaking services from first design all the way into productionDigging into how your code behaves under real load on Linux What makes the opportunity interesting: Rust in production on systems that genuinely matterRust doesn't need to be your first language, strong systems engineers are welcome to make the moveReal ownership rather than a small slice of a huge platformAlgorithms and data structures that matter day to day This would suit someone who loves making distributed systems faster and wants the chance to do it in Rust.
