Senior Rust Developer

OCR Labs

Senior Rust Developer @ OCR Labs 

Full time - Remote - Earth 
Join a new team of passionate engineers and build a world-class platform to fight identity fraud at a global scale.  The technology is awesome, interesting and solves real world problems.

The Position 

You will work in close collaboration with our Head of DevOps, our engineering team and our product team to: 
  • Write and re-write hardened, documented, and tested web- and api-based applications
  • Create CLI tools with and for the DevOps team
  • Define best practice and lay the ground for an expanding Rust team 
A fair chunk is green-field work (and no, it’s not crypto-currency related ).We prefer event-based architectures, cloud (AWS) and serverless. The good stuff. 

Needed qualifications 

Whilst technical competence is critical, we place great emphasis on passion, communication and collaboration across the business. 
  • You have a solid experience creating and maintaining web-based and api-based applications (in Rust or not);
  • You can demonstrate having built non-trivial Rust projects, ideally web or CLI related; 
  • You are comfortable with Javascript/Typescript ;
  • You are able to communicate clearly, both in writing and orally, and collaborate effectively with a remote team ;
  • You understand that documentation is half the battle, and that untested code is broken code ;
  • You know it takes time to build anything correctly, and you also know how to “get things done” when the situation calls for it ;
  • You are autonomous, but also know it’s better to ask than to guess. You are dependable, responsible, and committed. 

Nice-to-Haves 

It would be even more awesome if you built most of your development experience around Ruby On Rails ; and/or have experience developing for/with AWS Serverless technologies (API Gateway, Lambda, DynamoDB).
