- Implement best practices for testing, monitoring, CI/CD, and deployment.

- Stay up-to-date with advancements in Rust and backend engineering trends.

Requirements :

- Excited about working with Rust.

- 4 -7 years of experience in shipping production applications.

- B. Tech in Computer Science Engineering from Tier 1 Colleges is desirable.

- Understand the finer details of working with the Rust compiler and compiling to alternate targets such as WebAssembly.

- Experienced with TDD for unit testing individual functions and integration testing for testing publicly exposed APIs.

- Comfortable working with a Git-style workflow where every commit deploys to a staging environment and merged pull requests deploy to production.
