Rust Engineer
Rust Engineer (AI Training) About The Role What if your deep expertise in Rust could directly shape how AI writes and reasons about systems-level code? We're looking for experienced Rust engineers to review, evaluate, and improve AI-generated Rust code — helping ensure the next generation of AI understands memory safety, concurrency, and performance at an expert level. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for senior Rust developers who want meaningful, intellectually engaging work on their own schedule. Organization: Alignerr Type: Hourly Contract Location: Remote Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
Review and evaluate AI-generated Rust code for correctness, memory safety, concurrency, and performance Design, build, and optimize high-performance systems in Rust to support AI evaluation workflows Develop backend services and tooling for large-scale data validation and quality control Identify bottlenecks, edge cases, and system-level failure modes — and implement scalable fixes Provide structured, expert feedback on AI outputs across a range of systems programming challenges Work independently and asynchronously — fully on your own schedule Who You Are 5+ years of professional experience writing production-grade Rust with a focus on memory safety and concurrency Strong background in systems programming and performance optimization Able to spot subtle bugs, unsafe patterns, and inefficient designs that AI might miss Fluent in English with the ability to explain complex low-level programming concepts clearly and precisely Bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science or a related technical field Self-motivated and consistent when working independently
Nice to Have
Experience with distributed systems architecture or developer tooling Familiarity with AI code generation tools or evaluation workflows Background in embedded systems, OS development, or compiler engineering Prior experience in technical writing, code review, or mentoring
