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
