Solves the Talent Shortage
Rust developers are rare. In the US, there aren’t enough qualified engineers. Going remote gives you access to a global talent pool—senior developers in Latin America and Eastern Europe with identical skill levels.
Performance at Lower Cost
Remote Rust developers deliver the same code quality and architectural expertise for 45-56% less cost. Your budget stretches further without compromising standards.
Timezone Alignment Matters
Unlike offshore outsourcing to Asia with 12-hour gaps, we get you developers work in your timezone.
We analyze your company culture, technical requirements, and project needs. Not just “we need a Rust dev”, we understand your tech stack and team dynamics and communication style.
3-5 pre-vetted senior Rust developers matched specifically to your requirements, not 50 random resumes.
Meet candidates who’ve already been screened for technical excellence and cultural fit. Make your decision.
We handle all legal, HR, and payroll. You focus on building great products with your new Rust developer.

Here’s a guide to help you identify and hire top-notch Rust developers.
A Rust developer’s job now is to accomplish various computer programming jobs using the Rust programming language. Rust is a computer programming language that is used to improve the security and performance of applications and websites. It initially debuted in 2010 when Graydon Hoare invented it at Mozilla Research with critical input from other tech specialists.
In terms of syntax, the Rust programming language is quite similar to the C++ programming language. So, if you have C++ developers in your team, they might find it easy to learn and adapt to Rust for your project.
Rust is an attractive alternative to previously popular programming languages such as C++ and GO. Just like Go, Rust guarantees memory safety. However, the good thing about Rust is that it does so without any kind of garbage collection, which is a necessary condition when doing it with the Go programming language.
A Rust dev is primarily responsible for the design and implementation of digital projects such as operating systems, blockchain projects, and servers.
In the 21st century, programmers play a pivotal role in the success of modern businesses.
Different surveys have shown the average salary of a programmer to be around $100,000.
As per the latest report on average salaries by a reputed technology training company O’Reilly, Rust programmers earned the highest average salary of $180,000.
According to the same report, all other programmers and developers equipped with other highly in-demand programming languages, such as Go, Scala, C++, and Python, were paid well too. But the average did not exceed that of Rust developers.
However, hiring Remote Rust Developers means hiring professionals who live in countries with lower costs of living. In Eastern Europe for instance, Rust Developers earn approximately between $80,000 and $97,000. And in Latin America, the number is similar, with salaries ranging between $78,000 and $95,000 per year.
