Job description

Design, build, and ship production Rust services end-to-end from Postgres schema and migrations up through GraphQL and gRPC APIs for tens of thousands of users, with care for backwards compatibility and gated rollout of behavior changes. * Own features in our cloud GraphQL API: async-graphql schema and resolvers, sqlx queries and migrations (raw, compile-checked SQL no ORM), relationship-based authorization (Ory Keto), search (Meilisearch), and messaging (NATS/JetStream). * Build and evolve async, concurrent systems with Tokio services, background workers, and streaming APIs that stay correct under load and observable in production. * Work across gRPC / Protobuf service boundaries (Tonic/Prost), treating published surfaces as backwards-compatibility contracts. * Contribute to shared foundational crates with wide blast radius, keeping changes narrow and well-tested. * Extend Strada’s peer-to-peer architecture iroh/QUIC transport, WebRTC signaling, TURN, NAT traversal where media transfers directly between machines. * Depending on your interests and the team’s needs, go deep on the GStreamer media pipeline (custom elements, pro codecs, low-latency streaming) or the cloud and data plane (API, storage, search, auth). * Instrument everything (OpenTelemetry, Datadog, Prometheus) and take part in CI/CD on AWS EKS (Terraform/Terragrunt, GitHub Actions)., Media and streaming GStreamer, professional video codecs (ProRes, RED R3D, Blackmagic RAW), AVFoundation / VideoToolbox, low-latency pipelines. * Systems-level / OS work daemons and background services (launchd / Windows services), Unix domain sockets and named pipes, virtual filesystems (NFS / FSKit / WinFsp), caching, and content addressing.

Nice to have / bonus * gRPC / Protobuf on the Rust stack (Tonic/Prost), with schema-evolution and backwards-compat discipline. * async-graphql or other production GraphQL server experience. * sqlx specifically (compile-time-checked queries, offline mode) and Postgres performance tuning. * Ory (Keto/Oathkeeper) or other Zanzibar-style authorization; Auth0. * Cloud-native ops AWS (EKS, ECR, S3), Kubernetes, Terraform/Terragrunt, NATS, Meilisearch. * Cross-language FFI (swift-bridge, Rust Swift/TS bindings) handy, since our clients embed Rust. * Nix/devenv reproducible environments and just-based task runners. * Observability tooling (OpenTelemetry, Datadog, PrometheGrafana/Tempo). * A background in film, video, or post-production, or other professional media workflows.

Why Join R Systems? * Frequent Internal Hackathons: Engage in dynamic competitions with exciting prizes to keep your skills sharp. * Cultural Celebrations: Strengthen our familial bonds through shared celebrations, fostering a sense of community. * Diverse Project Exposure: Work on a variety of projects across sectors like Healthcare, Banking, e-commerce, and Retail, collaborating with leading global brands. * Centre of Excellence (COE): Benefit from technical guidance and upskilling opportunities provided by our team of technology experts, helping you navigate your career path. * E-Learning Platform: Gain access to comprehensive e-learning platforms coupled with a robust mentorship program to enhance your skills. * Open Door Policy: Embrace a culture of mutual support, respect, and open dialogue, promoting a collaborative work environment.

Requirements

Strong production Rust ownership, borrowing and lifetimes, traits, error handling, and a type system used well. * Solid async Rust (Tokio or equivalent): tasks, channels, streams, cancellation, and reasoning clearly about concurrency correctness., Production experience with relational databases and SQL (PostgreSQL preferred), including schema design and migrations comfortable with raw SQL, not just an ORM. * A solid grasp of auth fundamentals OAuth2 / JWT, and RBAC or relationship-based access control. * At home in a command-line, cloud-native workflow (Docker, CI/CD, some cloud infrastructure exposure), collaborating and reviewing code in a sizable codebase., If you are passionate and excited about working in a fast-paced, innovative environment, we would love to hear from you!
