Job Description
Senior Embedded Rust / Systems Developer Location: West Sussex (Crawley Area)
YT Technologies is partnering with a market-leading specialist engineering firm providing mission-critical technology for the global transport and infrastructure sectors. We are searching for an experienced Senior Rust Developer to join their close-knit, highly collaborative R&D team of 8 engineering professionals.
This is a pure systems-level engineering role focused entirely on writing performance-critical software directly for embedded devices, not servers. If you are looking for an autonomous environment where you can solve complex technical challenges using Rust's memory safety and concurrency features, this is your next project.
Key Responsibilities
- Design & Develop: Build and maintain high-performance, safe, and maintainable systems software using Rust.
- Architecture & Collaboration: Collaborate with team members on architectural decisions, own features end-to-end from design through to deployment, and participate in code reviews.
- Performance Optimisation: Debug and optimise systems for performance, memory usage, concurrent programming, and maximum reliability.
- Hardware Integration: Interface software with custom low-level platforms, handling protocols for connected fleet and transit gateways.
- Process & Documentation: Participate actively in agile development processes, manage your own workload, and contribute to technical documentation and knowledge sharing.

- Commercial Track Record: A minimum of 2+ years of commercial software development experience, with demonstrable experience deploying Rust in production environments.

- Low-Level Mastery: Deep comfort with systems programming concepts—specifically memory management, multi-threading, threading, and concurrency.
- Rust Specifics: Exceptionally proficient in Rust's ownership model, borrowing mechanisms, and lifetimes.
