Ask HN: Who is hiring? (March 2021)

NOTE: this position is no longer open.

Do you want to get paid to use Rust? Do you know a thing or two about systems programming, compilers, and operating systems? Do you like research-y work where the best solution is rarely the most obvious one?

Immunant is helping its customers deploy Rust code alongside or in place of C/C++. We are looking for a fellow systems programming expert to help us harden components used by hundreds of millions of users each day. If you are self-motivated, have demonstrable experience with C/C++/Rust, and an eye for detail, we should talk.

We are located in Southern California but also consider strong remote candidates in the United States.

Send questions and applications to team@immunant.com – please mention HN in subject line. We look forward to hearing from you!

Materialize is a streaming database for real-time applications. Materialize lets you ask questions about your data, and then get low-latency, correct answers, which are kept incrementally updated as the underlying data changes. Materialize is built on Timely Dataflow, a low-latency cyclic dataflow computational model, first introduced in the paper "Naiad: a timely dataflow system".

Materialize is co-founded by Frank McSherry, the primary author of Timely Dataflow (http://timelydataflow.com) and Differential Dataflow (http://differentialdataflow.com), the two open source projects that power Materialize. Materialize itself is source-available and entirely written in Rust: https://github.com/MaterializeInc/materialize
