Design, implement, and maintain Rust middleware and runtime layers for GPU-accelerated workloads.
Contribute directly to the oneAPI-rs codebase, including API design, feature development, bug fixes, and performance improvements.
Build safe and ergonomic Rust abstractions over oneAPI concepts such as memory management, kernels, module loading, and execution flows.
Improve integration paths between Rust applications and GPU compute stacks used in AI and HPC workloads.
Diagnose and resolve complex systems-level issues related to performance, memory behavior, concurrency, and multi-device execution.
Develop validation strategies with representative benchmarks and real-world workloads; analyze latency, throughput, and resource utilization.
Strengthen code quality through tests, documentation, examples, and CI-focused reliability improvements.
Collaborate in open source workflows through technical design discussions, issue triage, code reviews, and upstream contributions.
Partner cross-functionally with architecture, performance, and product teams to align technical direction with business priorities.
Requirements

Job Description:
As a Middleware Development Engineer (Rust), you will build high-impact systems software that connects low-level compute capabilities with developer-friendly runtime APIs. This role is focused on Rust-based GPU middleware and open source contribution, with a strong emphasis on advancing and maintaining the oneAPI-rs ecosystem (Rust oneAPI bindings and abstractions).
You will help design and optimize components that bridge oneAPI software stack functionality with modern Rust applications used in AI, HPC, and performance-critical workloads. Working with internal engineering teams, open source maintainers, and external users, you will shape reliable, ergonomic, and high-performance abstractions that scale from local development to distributed production environments.
