As a part of our work, we’re also building open source routing, model hosting, and model inference utilities.
Our services and desktop app are written in Rust. We currently use Tauri, but we’re interested in building a fully-native UX in Bevy.
Our services use Actix Web and SQLx, and it’s preferable if you have experience with distributed systems.
Strong need for Rust + MySQL + Backend experience.
We leverage Claude Code extensively, but we still want meticulously maintainable, human readable/editable code.
