Software Engineer (Rust)

Shift5 is building the data platform for onboard operational technology (OT). We deliver cybersecurity, predictive maintenance, and compliance capabilities that enable defense and commercial fleets to operate with greater readiness, resilience, and mission assurance.

We are seeking a mission-aligned Software Engineer (Rust) to build the core high-performance software that runs on our hardware platforms, unlocking the power of real-time vehicle data.

This role sits at the intersection of Systems Programming, Protocol Engineering, and Hardware Integration and will play a critical role in supporting Shift5’s next phase of growth.

This is not a high-level web or application role. It requires technical fluency at the bit level, ownership of memory-safe hardware abstractions, and the Relentless Innovation required to parse complex aerospace and defense protocols in resource-constrained environments.
