Senior Backend Engineer (Rust)

About Revel

 

Revel is building the software infrastructure that controls the world’s most critical hardware systems—across aerospace, energy, robotics, defense, and advanced manufacturing.

Our platform replaces outdated tooling with a modern, high-performance stack for commanding, monitoring, and deploying real-world systems. Engineers rely on Revel to operate hardware where safety, speed, reliability, and clarity matter.

As we scale, we are tackling complex data challenges around ingesting and analyzing large volumes of high-frequency, high-cardinality telemetry.


Role Overview

We are hiring a Senior Backend Engineer to help build the systems that power our data platform.

This role focuses on designing and implementing backend services and data pipelines that handle large-scale industrial telemetry. The nature of this data—high volume, high frequency, and high cardinality—requires thoughtful system design beyond typical off-the-shelf solutions.

You will work on high-performance services in Rust, help shape our data architecture, and contribute to the evolution of our infrastructure as we expand toward more cloud-based systems.

Your work will directly support core product capabilities, including reporting, analytics, and real-time system visibility.

This position is based in Marina Del Rey onsite. We are open to local candidates and those open to relocation. 

 


What You’ll Do
  • Design and build scalable backend services in Rust
  • Develop telemetry ingestion pipelines for high-frequency sensor data
  • Build storage systems optimized for efficient querying and long-term data retention
  • Collaborate with product and engineering teams to define system architecture and requirements
  • Contribute to the transition of systems from on-premise to cloud-based infrastructure
  • Help shape the long-term direction of our data platform
  • Build reliable, production-grade systems with a focus on performance and maintainability
 


Must-Have Experience
  • 7+ years of backend or systems engineering experience
  • Experience building data pipelines, distributed systems, or backend infrastructure
  • Experience working with high-throughput, time-series, and high-cardinality data
  • Proficiency in Rust, or strong experience in C++/systems programming with interest in learning Rust
  • Experience designing data storage and querying systems
  • Ability to work through ambiguity and contribute to system design decisions


Plusses
  • Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, etc.)
  • Experience with streaming/data processing systems (Kafka, Spark, Flink)
  • Familiarity with relational and non-relational databases (PostgreSQL, CockroachDB, HBase, etc.)
  • Experience working with hardware, IoT, industrial data systems


Team & Exposure

You will work closely with a small, highly technical team building core infrastructure for the platform. This role is cross-functional and closely tied to product initiatives around telemetry and reporting.

You will have meaningful ownership over system design and contribute directly to how our data platform evolves.

Why Revel
  • Work on systems that support real-world hardware operations
  • Tackle challenging problems in large-scale data infrastructure
  • High ownership and impact within a fast-moving engineering team
