Software Engineer (Rust)

Stack

Responsibilities

• ▹Build and evolve the Rerun viewer and cross-language SDKs, handling large volumes of 2D, 3D, time-series and statistical data in real time
• ▹Integrate the viewer seamlessly with Rerun Hub, so users can work with data far larger than their machine without it feeling that way
• ▹Make technology and architecture decisions that reach across the full stack while keeping the system maintainable
• ▹Work closely with the Hub, backend and design teams
• ▹Profile and optimize user workflows across desktop platforms and the web
• ▹Contribute to downstream open source projects when needed
• ▹Work directly with Rerun's users, from the open source community to customers running it on very large datasets

Requirements

• ▹Strong Rust skills, or equivalent skill in another compiled language (fluent enough to read and work in the Rust codebase; years of production Rust experience not required)
• ▹A generalist with UI skills, moving between interface, rendering, data handling and infrastructure
• ▹Experience with interactive data visualization, particularly large datasets and complex visual structures
• ▹Experience building real-time, high-performance applications
• ▹Comfort with ambiguity: finding the problem, making a call, and communicating it

Nice to have

• ▹Experience contributing to or maintaining open source projects, especially ones with a real community
• ▹Background in robotics (e.g. RViz), simulation, streaming, rendering, or game engines
• ▹Knowledge of GPU rendering pipelines (e.g. wgpu) and how to get performance out of them
