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. <ul><li>Organization: Alignerr</li><li>Type: Hourly Contract</li><li>Location: Remote</li><li>Commitment: 10–40 hours/week </li></ul>What You'll Do <ul><li>Review AI-generated Rust code for correctness, memory safety, and ownership pattern compliance</li><li>Design and write high-performance systems-level code to benchmark AI understanding of low-level constraints</li><li>Evaluate concurrent programming logic and identify potential race conditions or undefined behavior in AI outputs</li><li>Assess AI responses for type safety, scientific rigor, and adherence to idiomatic Rust</li><li>Provide clear, structured feedback that helps AI models improve at the systems programming level</li><li>Work independently and asynchronously — fully on your own schedule </li></ul>Who You Are <ul><li>5+ years of professional experience writing production-grade Rust with a focus on memory safety and concurrency</li><li>Strong background in systems programming and performance optimization</li><li>Deep understanding of Rust's ownership model, lifetimes, and concurrency primitives</li><li>Able to clearly explain complex low-level programming concepts in writing</li><li>Bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science or a related technical field</li><li>Fluent in English — you communicate technical ideas with precision and clarity </li></ul>Nice to Have <ul><li>Experience with distributed systems architecture or developer tooling</li><li>Familiarity with unsafe Rust and the trade-offs involved</li><li>Background in compiler design, embedded systems, or OS-level programming</li><li>Prior exposure to AI code generation tools or code review workflows </li></ul>Why Join Us <ul><li>Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs and AI teams</li><li>Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you</li><li>Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based work</li><li>Make a direct, tangible impact on how AI understands and generates systems-level code</li><li>Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch</li></ul>
