Senior Software Engineer

MetalBear is growing, and we’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our team.

We’re a small (~10 people), global (GMT-5 to GMT+2), fully remote team, and we’re looking for someone experienced who thrives in a remote-first environment with a lot of independence.

About MetalBear

MetalBear builds open-source developer tools for cloud engineers. Our flagship product, mirrord, allows developers to run local processes as if they were inside their cloud environment—without the hassle of deployment or disrupting shared environments. The mirrord OSS is used by 1000s of developers, and our paid version is already generating significant revenue, including from Fortune 500 companies.

About the Role

We’re looking for a software engineer with Rust experience to help build and improve mirrord. You’ll work on low-level systems, including OS-level hooks and syscalls, to make cloud development feel as seamless as local development.

Requirements

You should have one of the following:

• 2+ years of professional experience with Rust

• Experience with OS/low-level programming (hooks, syscalls)

• Experience building development tools for Kubernetes

Nice to Have

• Open-source experience

• Strong writing skills (e.g., blog posts, technical articles)
