About this role

Operate, maintain, and continuously improve a bare-metal Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) test infrastructure
Deploy and run a Rust-based control plane for reserving and remotely interacting with physical devices
Actively develop and improve Rust services where needed, especially around reliability, observability, and automation
Manage NixOS-based systems end-to-end: provisioning, updates, rollbacks
Integrate and automate hardware control (USB/serial, USB-OTG, power control, HDMI capture, networked devices)
Leverage existing tracing and metrics to improve monitoring, alerting, and system reliability

Strong Linux systems engineering background with hands-on production responsibility
Practical experience with Nix and NixOS (or strong motivation to work with it daily)
Comfortable reading, modifying, and extending Rust services in a production setting
Strong bias toward building predictable, debuggable, and maintainable systems
Experience with hardware-adjacent infrastructure beyond “just servers”
End-to-end mindset: you operate what you build, from metal to API
Enjoy working in a small team where everyone contributes across ops and development
