Job Title: Senior Rust Developer

Since 2016, Wallarm has been on a mission to secure the internet's critical infrastructure: APIs. Today, we are the trusted choice for over 200 of the world's most innovative companies, from high-growth startups to Fortune 500 and Nasdaq leaders. Our unified platform provides full-lifecycle API security — helping teams discover their attack surface, protect against modern threats, and respond to incidents in real-time. As a graduate of Y Combinator and fueled by a recent $55M Series C, we are scaling our global, remote-first team of 180+ innovators to solve the next generation of security challenges.

About this opportunity:

We’re launching an internal startup: a high-performing AI/API Management Platform on Rust. We’re looking for a founding engineer who will work directly with the founder and product owner to build the first production-ready version of the product.

The key point: we already have our first customer. The near-term goal is to deliver the first production-ready version and successfully roll it out to the client. After that, we’ll spin this into a standalone product with a dedicated team — and you’d have a real path to leading that team.

In 2026 we want to build the best AI/API gateway for the enterprise segment while entering the mid-market and appear in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for API Management as a Visionary.

What You'll Do:

• Own End-to-End Application Development: Take full, end-to-end responsibility for designing, developing, and deploying the new high-performing API Management Platform in Rust, ensuring it is robust and scalable from its first line of code to production.
• Establish Production Readiness: Implement and manage the and infrastructure required to move the application to a state, utilizing our cloud-native environment (Kubernetes, Helm, Terraform).
