Duties and Responsibilities:

Design and implement backend services in Rust within a microservices architecture.

Write maintainable, testable, and performant code; participate in code reviews and raise the engineering bar across the team.
Work with QA and DevOps to improve reliability, observability, and performance of our services.
Contribute to architectural decisions: choosing the right language for each problem, inter-service communication patterns, and data modeling.

Qualifications and Experience:

5+ years of professional backend development experience.
Solid production experience with Rust (minimum of 3 years).
Strong Python: FastAPI or similar modern frameworks, asynchronous programming (asyncio), and type-driven development (mypy, pydantic).
Deep understanding of microservices and communication patterns: sync/async, event-driven, message brokers (Kafka / RabbitMQ / NATS), gRPC/REST.
Working-level PostgreSQL: indexes, transactions, isolation levels, locking, query plans.
SOLID, dependency injection, and clean architecture — applied in practice, not just in theory.
Working knowledge of k8s, containers, networking, and CI/CD.
English B2 or higher.

Nice to Have but not Obligatory:

Experience migrating Python services to Rust under real load (with measurements and clear motivation).
Exposure to vector databases (e.g., Qdrant).
