Hire Rust developers

These senior Rust developers build fast, memory-safe services and systems software with AI tools, and they check what those tools produce. Each one is tested on ownership and lifetimes, async runtimes, unsafe boundaries and performance under load.

What changed about working in Rust

01

The borrow checker isn't the whole review

Models now get generated Rust past the compiler, often by cloning, boxing or reaching for unsafe. The code compiles but can be slower or less safe than it looks, so engineers have to judge how it passed as well as whether it did.

02

Async Rust fails quietly

Generated async code can block the runtime, hold a lock across an await or spawn tasks that never finish. Those faults show up as latency under load, which is where we test.

03

Unsafe needs an owner

When an agent proposes an unsafe block or a new FFI boundary, someone has to prove the invariants hold. That call belongs to a senior engineer, and it's part of what we assess.

What we test for

How we assess Rust developers

Every engineer works through a fundamentals assessment with AI tools switched off and a second assessment with their own agents running. For Rust developers, these criteria carry the most weight.

AI output verification

The engineer reviews generated Rust that compiles cleanly but clones its way past the borrow checker or adds an unsafe block, and decides what to change before it merges.

Debugging

Engineers trace a latency problem in async code to a blocking call or a lock held across an await, using a profiler rather than guesswork.

Judgement by risk and ownership

The engineer decides which unsafe and FFI changes are acceptable, what needs a second review and how to document the invariants.

Questions about hiring Rust developers

How senior are Miyagami's Rust developers?

Every Rust developer we put forward is senior, has shipped and maintained production systems and has passed both assessments. You see both scorecards before you meet them.

How do you test Rust specifically?

Each engineer does two sixty-minute assessments in a real Rust codebase. The first covers ownership, lifetimes, error handling and debugging with AI tools off. In the second they use their own agents, and we check whether they catch generated code that compiles but is slow, blocking or unnecessarily unsafe.

How quickly can a Rust developer start?

You get a shortlist in five working days. From shortlist to first commit is typically three weeks, covering your interview, any technical conversation you want to run and contract setup. Engagements are full-time only, with a three-month minimum.

What does a Rust developer cost through Miyagami?

You pay a fixed monthly fee of €5,600 to €8,000 per full-time engineer, with employment, payroll and compliance included and no recruitment fee. The pricing page compares it with the all-in cost of a senior local hire in your country. Engagements are full-time with a three-month minimum, and if a placement doesn't work out, we replace them at our cost.

Do they work in our stack and tools or their own?

Once placed, engineers work in your repositories, your tooling and your sprints, and follow your rules for what AI tools may touch. In the second assessment they use their own agents, so you've already seen how they work with them.

Let's talk

Get a shortlist within five working days

You share the roles and the stack in a short form or a thirty-minute call. Within five working days you get named senior engineers to review, each with both scorecards.
