Backend Rust Developer

Backend Rust Developer (AI Training) About The Role What if your deep expertise in Rust could directly shape how AI understands and generates systems-level code for developers around the world?

We're looking for experienced Rust developers to evaluate AI-generated code, challenge its limits, and help build smarter, safer AI systems from the ground up.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for seasoned systems programmers who know what good Rust looks like — and exactly when it falls short.

Organization: AlignerrType: Hourly ContractLocation: RemoteCommitment: 10–40 hours/week What You'll Do Review AI-generated Rust code for correctness, memory safety, and ownership pattern complianceDesign and write high-performance systems-level code to benchmark AI understanding of low-level constraintsEvaluate concurrent programming logic and identify potential race conditions or undefined behavior in AI outputsAssess AI responses for type safety, scientific rigor, and adherence to idiomatic RustProvide clear, structured feedback that helps AI models improve at the systems programming levelWork independently and asynchronously — fully on your own schedule Who You Are 5+ years of professional experience writing production-grade Rust with a focus on memory safety and concurrencyStrong background in systems programming and performance optimizationDeep understanding of Rust's ownership model, lifetimes, and concurrency primitivesAble to clearly explain complex low-level programming concepts in writingBachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science or a related technical fieldFluent in English — you communicate technical ideas with precision and clarity Nice to Have Experience with distributed systems architecture or developer toolingFamiliarity with unsafe Rust and the trade-offs involvedBackground in compiler design, embedded systems, or OS-level programmingPrior exposure to AI code generation tools or code review workflows Why Join Us Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs and AI teamsFully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits youFreelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based workMake a direct, tangible impact on how AI understands and generates systems-level codePotential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
