Why Rust.Careers is the best place to post your Rust Job
Summary: #
Rust.Careers, the Best Job board in the world for companies looking for Rust developers and also a Comparison of Rust.Careers vs other Job sites.
If you are looking for a Rust job board that reaches serious, production-level developers, Rust.Careers is built for exactly that.
Stability #
Since 2020, we have been online every day, serving the Rust community. We are not going anywhere, and we will be here even in 15-30 years into the future. All our infrastructure is operated by us in several geographically diverse locations. When Amazon, Cloudflare, and big providers go down, we remain online.
Financial and strategic independence #
Rust.Careers is run by Firo Solutions, an independent software company that is not affected by the decision of big tech giants and umbrella structures
Data Privacy #
We do not and will never resell or share customer details.
A Rust-Only Developer Audience #
Rust.Careers is not a general programming job board.
Our audience is:
- Dedicated Rust developers
- Engineers actively working with Rust in production
- Developers who have followed and bookmarked Rust.Careers for years
Many other job sites repost jobs from Rust.Careers via our RSS feed, demonstrating the value and originality of our listings.
This creates a high signal-to-noise ratio for companies hiring Rust developers.
Built and Operated by Humans #
Rust.Careers is run by a real team of real Rust-heads, not by automated content farms or bots.
We personally maintain the platform, moderate content, and continuously improve quality.
“Rust.Careers is not just another automated site. They helped us hire four engineers right after our funding round.
It shortened our roadmap and allowed us to move significantly faster.”
— Jonas, COO, Fintech company, Switzerland
We handle Rust.Careers with real human hours from a dedicated team.
We love Rust #
Other Job sites are continuously copying us, meanwhile, Rust.Careers is the real deal. We focus only on Rust and do not run several Job boards like other entities.
Made for the Rust community #
In 2020, when development funding inside Mozilla was reduced and the Rust ecosystem faced uncertainty, we committed to supporting the community.
Rust.Careers was created by Rust developers, for Rust developers — and it remains focused purely on serving this ecosystem.

Numbers don’t lie, Rust.Careers is the most price-effective way of hiring Rust developers.
Recruitment firms vs Job boards #
We completed a survey to 200 Rust developers asking them what they think of recruiters. 81% have had a negative experience. Several cases have also been reported where companies are paying recruiters 10-15% of the developer’s annual salary. Stay far away from Recruiters… We want the developers to cherry-pick what they want the most, giving the companies that list with us a constant flow of applicants.
Security and Data trust #
Your jobs and company data are handled securely.
We routinely audit our codebase and work with external penetration testers to identify and fix vulnerabilities.
You are posting on a platform built with a security-first mindset.
