Job Summary

We are seeking a Senior Backend Engineer with deep technical expertise in Rust and a strong working knowledge of Python to be the driving technical force behind a major language migration strategy. In this role, you will take full ownership of rewriting, optimizing, and scaling highly sensitive cryptographic and data-processing APIs. This is a high-impact position where you will ensure the next-generation platform achieves maximum throughput, ultra-low latency, and ironclad memory safety.

Responsibilities

  • Lead and execute the technical rewriting of existing Python-based microservices, data pipelines, and security APIs into production-grade, idiomatic Rust.

  • Profile legacy Python services to identify performance bottlenecks and leverage Rust’s zero-cost abstractions to drastically optimize CPU, memory, and I/O utilization.

  • Implement and champion Rust best practices within the engineering team, including strict error handling, robust automated testing, and comprehensive CI/CD linting paradigms.

  • Collaborate closely with security and cryptography protocols to ensure all rewritten Rust modules strictly adhere to Zero-Trust architecture and memory-safety mandates.

  • Work alongside cross-functional teams to ensure smooth integration, participating in architecture reviews and system design.

Qualifications and Job Requirements

  • 4+ years of professional experience building, deploying, and maintaining high-performance backend applications or APIs in Rust.

  • Deep familiarity with Rust best practices, including asynchronous programming (e.g., Tokio ecosystem), advanced trait design, and safe concurrency.

  • Strong competency in Python, with the ability to read, profile, and reverse-engineer existing complex codebases seamlessly.

  • A proven track record of designing scalable, resilient distributed systems and low-latency RESTful or gRPC APIs.

  • Practical experience with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and deploying high-availability services in cloud environments (such as AWS or GCP).

What We Offer

  • 100% Remote Work: Enjoy the freedom to work from the location that helps you thrive. All it takes is a laptop and a reliable internet connection.

  • Highly Competitive USD Pay: Earn an excellent, market-leading compensation in USD, that goes beyond typical market offerings.

  • Paid Time Off: We value your well-being. Our paid time off policies ensure you have the chance to unwind and recharge when needed.

  • Work with Autonomy: Enjoy the freedom to manage your time as long as the work gets done. Focus on results, not the clock.

  • A Culture That Values You: We prioritize well-being and work-life balance, offering engagement activities and fostering dynamic teams to ensure you thrive both personally and professionally.

  • Diverse, Global Network: Connect with over 600 professionals in 25+ countries, expand your network, and collaborate with a multicultural team from Latin America.
