About The Role

Workato is seeking a Senior Rust Developer to help build new products and develop reliable, high-performance software. Based in Berlin, Germany, this role offers the opportunity to work on new product areas, create proofs of concept, and help promising ideas progress into production. You will also contribute to existing systems written in Go and Ruby, bringing sound engineering judgment to both new development and established codebases.

You will work with colleagues across locations and time zones, communicating technical ideas clearly and collaborating to solve complex engineering challenges. The role suits a practical, results-oriented developer who enjoys exploring new technologies, proposing solutions, and adapting to changing priorities.

Qualifications

You bring at least two years of experience writing, shipping, and maintaining production Rust code, as well as familiarity with one or more additional programming languages, such as Go, Ruby, Python, JavaScript, or Java. You understand core data structures and algorithms, multiprocessing, and memory management, and have experience building high-performance asynchronous applications in Rust. Experience with Tokio is preferred.

You have a solid understanding of network protocols and stacks, along with familiarity with relational databases and modern NoSQL technologies. You understand Linux environments and have basic knowledge of DevOps practices and tools. Strong spoken English is needed to participate in technical interviews and collaborate effectively with colleagues. You are comfortable working remotely with a globally distributed team and are willing to travel for business when required.

Experience with Go or Ruby is an advantage, as are familiarity with WebAssembly and contributions to open-source projects. Beyond technical skills, you take a problem-solving approach, communicate proactively, and are open to learning new technologies and moving between projects as business needs evolve.

Responsibilities

Design, develop, test, ship, and maintain software written primarily in Rust, following sound engineering practices and contributing to dependable production systems. Build new products and features that support Workato’s integration, automation, and orchestration platform. Work with existing Go and Ruby code, understanding its behavior and making thoughtful improvements where needed.

Explore new technical areas by developing proofs of concept, evaluating their feasibility, and recommending whether they should be developed further, brought into production, or discontinued. Help ensure applications perform effectively, particularly in asynchronous and network-intensive contexts. Collaborate with teammates across disciplines and time zones, communicate progress and risks, and propose practical solutions when challenges arise.

Benefits

Workato offers a flexible, trust-oriented work environment designed to support ownership, collaboration, and well-being. Team members can contribute in a dynamic setting while balancing productivity with self-care. You will have the opportunity to work with colleagues across regions, take part in building new products, and contribute to a company focused on enterprise technology and continued innovation. Specific benefit details may vary by location and will be shared during the hiring process.
