Backend Rust Developer (AI Training) About The Role What if your deep expertise in Rust could directly shape how AI understands and generates systems-level code for developers around the world? We're looking for experienced Rust developers to evaluate AI-generated code, challenge its limits, and help build smarter, safer AI systems from the ground up. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for seasoned systems programmers who know what good Rust looks like — and exactly when it falls short.

• Organization: Alignerr
• Type: Hourly Contract
• Location: Remote
• Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do

• Review AI-generated Rust code for correctness, memory safety, and ownership pattern compliance
• Design and write high-performance systems-level code to benchmark AI understanding of low-level constraints
• Evaluate concurrent programming logic and identify potential race conditions or undefined behavior in AI outputs
• Assess AI responses for type safety, scientific rigor, and adherence to idiomatic Rust
• Provide clear, structured feedback that helps AI models improve at the systems programming level
• Work independently and asynchronously — fully on your own schedule

Who You Are

• 5+ years of professional experience writing production-grade Rust with a focus on memory safety and concurrency
• Strong background in systems programming and performance optimization
• Deep understanding of Rust's ownership model, lifetimes, and concurrency primitives
• Able to clearly explain complex low-level programming concepts in writing
• Bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science or a related technical field
• Fluent in English — you communicate technical ideas with precision and clarity

Nice to Have

• Experience with distributed systems architecture or developer tooling
• Familiarity with unsafe Rust and the trade-offs involved
• Background in compiler design, embedded systems, or OS-level programming
• Prior exposure to AI code generation tools or code review workflows

Why Join Us

• Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs and AI teams
• Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
• Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based work
• Make a direct, tangible impact on how AI understands and generates systems-level code
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
