About Termius
Termius is redefining how engineers interact with remote systems. Millions of engineers and thousands of companies rely on Termius worldwide.
While AI has transformed modern IDEs, terminals remain largely unchanged since the 1970s. As a leading cross-platform SSH client, our mission is to boost productivity and foster collaboration by rebuilding the Terminal for the modern era.
We’re currently looking for a product-minded Rust Engineer to join our team and help build a new product that will become a powerful extension of the Termius ecosystem.
It would be great if you also have experience working with other programming languages, such as Python, C++ etc.
We are considering candidates who would potentially be open to relocating to New Zealand.
Why Join Termius
- You will help define how logic is shared across platforms: a fundamental shift in how we build software
- Your expertise will influence the entire engineering team. You’ll act as a multiplier, not just an executor
- We value transparency, ownership, and fast decision-making
- We build for engineers and aim to make complex things simple and elegant
What You Will Do
- Design and implement a shared core layer used across desktop, mobile, and backend
- Contribute to architecture decisions around CRDT and distributed systems
- Collaborate closely with frontend, mobile, and backend engineers to integrate Rust components
- Improve performance, reliability, and maintainability of the system
What We Offer
- Relocation to Auckland, New Zealand
- Apple hardware and additional accessories for your computer to make your work efficient and comfortable.
- Fail-fast-learn-fast environment and a sense of ownership.
- Opportunities for professional growth and development
