  • Collaboration: Work closely with teams specializing in networking, hardware acceleration, and systems engineering while actively contributing to open-source projects.

 

Qualifications:

  • Extensive experience in Rust with a strong background in systems programming and asynchronous runtimes.

  • Proven expertise in networking protocols, low-level performance optimization, and concurrency.

  • Ability to work independently and effectively within cross-functional teams.

 

Nice-to-Have Skills:

  • Experience with thread-per-core design, live reconfiguration, and stream processing.

  • Familiarity with Apache Arrow and DataFusion.

  • Background in hardware acceleration techniques (e.g., SIMD, modern CPU architectures).

  • Contributions to Rust-based open-source projects.

 

Why Join Us? 

Work on cutting-edge proxy technology that drives high-performance solutions. Join a passionate team dedicated to innovation and technical excellence, and help shape systems that operate at scale while contributing to both our open-source initiatives and proprietary advancements.
