About This Talk

Over the past few years, I have had countless conversations with Rust engineers across Europe, helping them find their next role in fast-growing AI and infrastructure startups. In this talk, I’ll share what the Rust job market really looks like in 2025 — where companies are hiring, which skills stand out, and how the recruitment process actually works behind the scenes.

I’ll also touch on a few myths about “getting hired in Rust” and share some practical tips on how engineers can tell their story authentically — without feeling like they have to “sell” themselves.

Expect a relaxed, honest talk about Rust, people, and what makes great engineers stand out in this ecosystem.

An Option? Have a slice!

In 2024, I added the `Option::as_slice` and `Option::as_mut_slice` methods to libcore. This talk is about what motivated the addition, and looks into the no less than 4 different implementations that made up the methods. It also shows that even without a deep understanding of all compiler internals, it is possible to add changes both to the compiler and standard library.
