Talent·By Stack·Rust

Hire Rust Engineers.

For the parts of the system that cannot be wrong.

Senior Rust engineers embedded in your team through staff augmentation. Rust hires are rare, senior, and specific. We place them where correctness and performance are the product: parsers, engines, embedded targets, crypto-adjacent systems, and the hot 5% of an otherwise higher-level stack.

What they do

Performance-critical services, WASM modules, data-plane components, SDKs, and the incremental rewrite of the one service that keeps falling over.

  • 02Matched in 7 days, in your time zone. We don't place engineers more than ~4 hours off your business day.
  • 03Transparent pricing. 60/25/15: most of what you pay reaches the engineer. See the breakdown.

FAQ

Honest answers, common questions.

Do we need Rust or do we need profiling?
Often the latter, and we’ll tell you. A Rust engagement starts with a benchmark harness so the win is measured, not assumed.
Can they wrap Rust for our Python / Node teams?
Yes. PyO3 and napi-rs bindings are a common deliverable, so your existing team keeps its language.
How deep is the bench?
Smaller than TypeScript, deeper than average: we accept very few, and all have shipped Rust in production, not just in side projects.
