Job description

Senior Software Engineer, Rust, Core Engineering

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer, Rust, Core Engineering, who will participate in the development of fundamental components of the Assetara platform, create reliable Rust services, and strengthen the architectural foundation of the product with a focus on security, performance, and scalability. We need a strong engineer with a deep technical background who is skilled in working with distributed systems, thinks systematically, and views the quality of engineering solutions as a critical part of the company's long-term growth.

What We Offer

• Work in a modern Assetara office.
• Official employment, transparent terms of cooperation, and long-term prospects for working at the company.
• Competitive salary with the opportunity to discuss final terms based on the candidate's experience, technical level, and depth of engineering expertise.
• The opportunity to work on the company's core infrastructure and directly influence the reliability, stability, and scalability of Assetara's key technological components.
• Access to architecturally significant tasks, platform solutions, and engineering expertise that allows you to work on the systems that underpin the entire product.
• Participation in the development of distributed systems, network services, and internal libraries with a high level of technical responsibility and influence on the company's long-term architecture.
• Support during the adaptation phase, access to internal technical documentation, architectural materials, and key engineering teams.
• A comfortable and well-organized workspace with everything you need for productive and focused work.
• Paid vacation and official holidays in accordance with the company's internal policy.
• Health insurance and reimbursement of medical expenses as part of the corporate employee support program.
• Opportunities for professional development, training, and further career growth within the company.
• Corporate meetings, internal events, and a comfortable office environment with drinks, snacks, refreshments, and other pleasant everyday perks at the company's expense.

About the Role

This role is suitable for an engineer who can think at the platform level and perceives code not simply as the implementation of functionality, but as the foundation of a reliable, secure, and scalable system. We are looking for someone who understands how stable shared systems are built, can make architectural decisions, and is capable of creating technical components on which the quality of the entire product depends.

We need a candidate with serious experience in software engineering and strong expertise in Rust, who is capable of designing and implementing robust backend services, writing clean and productive code, working confidently with network and asynchronous systems, and interacting with other teams when solving complex architectural problems. A security-first mindset, a high level of technical maturity, the ability to deeply understand problems across the stack, and a willingness to take end-to-end ownership of critical engineering decisions are particularly important for this position.

Requirements:

• 7+ years of experience in software engineering.
• Practical experience in developing and scaling shared systems or other complex infrastructure solutions.
• Deep expertise in Rust and confident work with network services, asynchronous code, or system backend development in Rust.
• Strong understanding of distributed systems and the principles of building reliable platform architecture.
• Security-first mindset and attention to issues of sustainability, fault tolerance, and secure engineering practices.
• Ability to independently investigate and resolve technical issues at different levels of the stack.
• Experience effectively collaborating with product and engineering teams when working on complex technical tasks.
• Willingness to take full responsibility for architectural and engineering decisions from design to implementation.

At Assetara, you will not just write code, but participate in creating the technological foundation of the company, on which the security, stability, and scalability of the product are built. This position is especially suitable for those who want to work in a strong office engineering team, solve complex infrastructure tasks, and make a real contribution to the development of an international technology business.

If you are interested in building core infrastructure, working with distributed systems, developing high-load Rust components, and being part of a company that values a strong engineering culture and long-term architectural stability, Assetara could be the perfect professional environment for you.
