Fly.io Is Hiring Rust Developers
Fly.io is currently not accepting new applications for the role mentioned, but will do so after a few months. The company specializes in running apps close to users by transmogrifying Docker containers into Firecracker micro-VMs that run on their hardware around the world and connecting them to a global Anycast network. Fly.io's platform engine is written in Rust and Go, with Go code powering orchestration and Rust code driving fly-proxy, their Anycast network. The company is looking for people who want to work on fly-proxy, which manages connectivity for numerous Fly.io apps and isolates the concurrency budget for each app. They offer a remote work environment with flexible vacation time, hardware/phone allowances, health care for US employees, and a comp range of $160k-$200k plus equity. Their hiring process focuses on work-sample challenges rather than resumes or interviews.
