We’re introducing Rust where correctness, performance, and reliability truly matter.Narvar is a multi-language platform, and we’re intentional about where we apply Rust. We’re looking for senior engineers to help usbring Rust into the backbone of the system— the parts that must be fast, safe, and correct under real-world scale.This role is for engineers who want agency: people who enjoy identifying the right problems, choosing the right tools, and owning systems end-to-end. You won’t be handed a narrow ticket queue. You’ll help decide what gets built and how it should be built.What You’ll Work OnDesign and buildhigh-correctness Rust servicesthat sit on critical platform pathsIntroduce Rust into areas where safety, determinism, and performance are essentialOwn systems fromarchitecture → implementation → rollout → operationsMake real decisions around concurrency, async boundaries, data integrity, and failure modesWork across service boundaries in apolyglot environment(Rust alongside other stacks)Collaborate with product, design, and frontend engineers to build systems that are technically sound and product-awareImprove reliability, observability, and system behavior through design, not just patchingMentor other engineers and raise the bar on system quality and ownershipWhat We’re Looking ForWe care more aboutjudgment and ownershipthan credentials.You’re likely a strong fit if you:Have built and operateddistributed systemsin productionHavedeep hands‑on Rust experience(not just experiments or side projects)Understand where Rust shines — and where it doesn’tAre comfortable reasoning aboutconcurrency, async systems,
and correctness guaranteesHave experience designing APIs and data contracts that evolve safely over timeHave worked withrelational and/or NoSQL databasesat scaleHave deployed and operated services inAWS or GCP(We are a GCP Shop though!)Take initiative naturally and are comfortable operating with ambiguityCommunicate clearly and make tradeoffs explicitSignals That You’ll Thrive HereThese aren’t hard requirements, but strong indicators:You’ve worked instartup or high‑ownership environmentsYou’ve owned systems in production, including on‑call responsibilityYou’re comfortable moving across the stack when needed (backend‑first, full‑stack aware)You’ve influenced architecture by earning trust, not by mandateYou use contemporary tooling (including AI‑assisted workflows) toincrease leverage, not outsource thinking(Note: we care about outcome and judgment, not how flashy your tools are.)Why Rust at Narvar?Because some parts of the system deserve stronger guarantees.We use Rust where:Bugs are expensiveLatency and throughput matterSafety and correctness are non‑negotiableYou’ll help definewhere Rust belongs, not just write Rust in isolation.Why Narvar (From an Engineer’s Perspective)Real scale, real customers, real impactsStartup‑level ownership with platform‑level impactTeams that valuethinking, judgment, and responsibilityLow ego, high trust, and room to do your best workWhy Narvar?We're on a mission to simplify the everyday lives of consumers.
