Rust Cloud Services Developer

Rust Cloud Services Developer, Real-time Engine Team

Fetcherr is developing a high-performance service for flight price optimization. We are seeking a talented Senior Rust Engineer who will actively participate in all development phases, including research, design, development, testing, and integration of Fetcherr’s Engine software components. The primary focus of this role is to develop high-performance microservices, particularly data services, ensuring they are reliable, scalable, and maintainable.

About The Role:

This is a unique opportunity to build a real-time API engine from the ground up, entering this emerging field at an early stage and shaping our product, technology, and business.

We are looking for an experienced Rust Cloud Services Developer to join our Real-Time Pricing Optimization team. You'll focus on building and optimizing high-performance, cloud-native services in Google Cloud Platform (GCP), specifically around data storage and data-intensive applications.

Strong C++ developers familiar with Java, Go, or Python are encouraged to apply, with the opportunity to transition into Rust.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain high-performance backend services in Rust for real-time pricing systems.
• Utilize Rust, Go, and Python to build efficient and scalable applications.
• Build and maintain APIs (REST, gRPC) for internal and external use.
• Optimize performance, scalability, and reliability, with a focus on data structures.
• Debug and troubleshoot cloud services, ensuring high availability and low latency.
• Utilize and manage databases, ensuring efficient data querying and manipulation.
• Contribute to the overall architecture and design of the software solutions.
• Collaborate with engineers to develop reliable, secure, and scalable applications.
• Adhere to secure coding practices and ensure the security and reliability of applications.
• Participate in code reviews, testing, and continuous integration processes.
• Stay updated with the latest industry trends and technologies.
  
  

Requirements:

Must Have:

• 2+ years with Rust in cloud-native services.
• Familiar with Rust libraries (e.g., Axum, Actix, tokio).
• 5+ years in backend development with high-performance systems, including Java, Go, Python, or similar languages.
• Experience with high performance protocols, like gRPC, HTTP/2, HTTP/3, WebSockets.
• Strong C++ background with a willingness to transition to Rust.
• Experience in asynchronous programming and performance tuning.
• Expertise in API development (REST, gRPC) and microservices.
• Proficient in GCP, particularly in data storage and processing.
• Strong knowledge of data structures, algorithms, and system optimization.
• Hands-on with unit/integration testing and debugging complex cloud services.
• Familiar with SQL/NoSQL databases, data storage, and querying tools.
• Experience with Kubernetes, Docker, and CI/CD.
• Bachelor's in Computer Science or related field.
• Fluent in English with excellent communication skills.
  
  

Nice to Have:

• Experience with Big Data technologies and frameworks.
• Exposure to AI and Machine Learning concepts and tools.
• Experience with other cloud platforms (AWS, Azure).
• Proficiency in service monitoring, observability, and incident management.
  
  

What We're Not Looking For:

• This role is strictly backend-focused with cloud service expertise - candidates without strong Rust, C++, or backend experience should not apply.
• We are not looking for fullstack, frontend, or pure systems developers; this role is for someone specialized in backend cloud services and data optimization.
• Candidates must have experience working with large-scale, high-performance data storage systems, preferably in GCP.
  
  

Why Join Us:

• Be part of a global team working on cutting-edge pricing optimization technology in a cloud environment.
• Opportunity to transition into Rust from other systems programming languages like C++.
• Work in a flexible, collaborative environment with opportunities for career growth.
• Competitive compensation, benefits, and the chance to make a real impact on a key system in our business.
  
  

Skills and Attributes:

• Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
• Excellent communication and collaboration abilities.
• Ability to work effectively both independently and in a collaborative team environment.
• Proactive and able to manage multiple tasks effectively.
• Passion for technology and continuous learning.
