Senior Full Stack Rust Engineer role focused on backend Rust development with frontend contributions for a fixed term contract in Toronto.

Обязанности

We are seeking a Full Stack Rust Engineer to join the team as a hands-on contributor building and maintaining production Rust applications. This role spans backend systems engineering, database query development, and frontend contribution — with the center of gravity firmly on backend Rust development in a distributed, containerized environment. This is a build-and-ship role. The successful candidate writes production Rust, debugs production Rust, and owns the quality and performance of the systems they deliver.

Требования

5+ years of experience creating and managing Rust applications in production environments
Strong command of Rust's ownership model, lifetime system, trait system, and error handling patterns
Experience with the async Rust ecosystem (Tokio, async-std, or equivalent runtimes)
Proficiency with common Rust web frameworks and libraries (Actix, Axum, Warp, or equivalent)
Demonstrated ability to debug Rust applications in production: diagnosing panics, memory issues, deadlocks, and performance bottlenecks
Strong systems/backend engineering experience in a production setting — this is not a prototyping or research role
Experience designing and building APIs, background workers, data pipelines, or other backend services that run reliably at scale
SQL and Data Strong experience creating scalable and efficient SQL queries, including complex joins, window functions, indexing strategy, and query plan analysis
Experience working with relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, or equivalent) in production
Familiarity with testing best practices in Rust and broader software engineering
Experience writing and maintaining unit tests, integration tests, and ideally propertybased or fuzz tests
Understanding of CI/CD pipelines and how testing fits into a production deployment workflow
Knowledge of Kubernetes and containerized environments: deploying, scaling, and troubleshooting services running in containers
Experience with observability and alerting in mission-critical distributed systems: structured logging, distributed tracing (OpenTelemetry, Jaeger, or equivalent), metrics (Prometheus, Grafana, or equivalent), and alerting configuration
Ability to communicate effectively with team members at all levels — engineers, product managers, and leadership
Willingness and ability to mentor junior engineers: code review, pair programming, and knowledge sharing on Rust and systems engineering topics
The anticipated hourly range for this position is $75 hourly . Rate is based on a range of factors that include relevant experience, expertise, and organizational impact. This is based on a 40-hour workweek and leveling. Keep in mind, we're flexible.
