You build across the whole stack - the React/TypeScript front-end that operators and technicians use, the Go cloud API (LiftCloud) that serves it, and the Rust services at the core of the platform: the VTS (Vendor Translation Services) layer and the LiftNet client/server re-architecture. Rust is your center of gravity - the hardest, highest-value work lives there. You'll own features vertically rather than by layer, split day-to-day ownership with the principal engineer and a second full-stack engineer to remove key-person bottlenecks, and contribute directly to LiftNet's strategic roadmap - the evolving LiftNet architecture, predictive analytics, and the LN2 Integrator automated-QA effort. If Ownership, Minimal oversight, Small team, Rust, & Remote resonate you, this is your dream role., * Own features end to end across the stack - front-end (React/TypeScript), cloud API (Go/LiftCloud), and Rust services - rather than working a single layer. However, this role will center around Rust. * Do deep Rust work on the VTS (Vendor Translation Services) layer and the LiftNet client/server re-architecture, where your specialization matters most. * Read and extend the Go cloud API and build the UI that consumes it correctly, keeping API contracts and data shapes coherent across the stack. * Build data-dense, real-time interfaces - dashboards, map views, status panels - that stay performant and legible for building operators and field technicians on desktop and tablet. * Design and build client/server distributed-system components aligned to the LiftNet re-architecture. * Work across the full architecture: the edge layer (Raspberry Pi, binary/serial protocols), the VTS translation layer, the Go cloud, and AWS (EC2, PostgreSQL/RDS, QuestDB). * Operate, debug, and harden the Linux-based services that run on the edge devices and in the cloud. * Integrate and translate industrial/OT controller protocols (OPC UA, Modbus, serial). * Build regression validation against golden/blessed datasets and packet-level (Wireshark) verification, supporting the LN2 Integrator effort. * Contribute to AWS environment setup (Dev/Staging/QA) and security-group hardening, complementing the SOC 2 readiness effort. * Partner with the principal engineer and the second full-stack engineer to split ownership across the stack and reduce day-to-day escalation drag. * Own day-to-day work across front-end, cloud, and Rust services reliably, without principal-engineer rescue. * Deliver predictable, on-time turnaround on committed customer features. * Take independent ownership of at least one vertical domain (UI through Rust service) within the first months. * Reduce key-person risk across the VTS, the Rust backend, and the front-end. ## Related Videos - [Rust Beyond Systems: Revolutionizing Web Development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1111-rust-beyond-systems-revolutionizing-web-development) - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [Developing the Backend with Stefan Lingler, CTO at Shpock](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100360-developing-the-backend-with-stefan-lingler-cto-at-shpock) - [Get ready to Rustle](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/698-get-ready-to-rustle) - [Meet Your New BFF: Backend to Frontend without the Duct Tape](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/682-meet-your-new-bff-backend-to-frontend-without-the-duct-tape) - [Docker exec without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1094-docker-exec-without-docker) ## Related Articles - [Building AI Solutions with Rust and Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/494-building-ai-solutions-with-rust-and-docker) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [The 7 Most Popular Backend Frameworks for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/403-the-7-most-popular-backend-frameworks-for-developers)
