Job description
from Red Hat careersJob Summary
At Red Hat, we believe open source is the best way to build software. We are guided by four core values: Freedom, Courage, Commitment, and Accountability. We are looking for a Rust Software Engineer (or Senior SWE) to join the team behind the Red Hat Offline Knowledge Portal. This isn't just a "backend" role; it is a systems-focused Product Engineering role. You will be responsible for ensuring that our knowledge base remains accessible, performant, and reliable in environments where connectivity is a luxury, not a given.
As part of the Offline Knowledge Portal team, you will own the lifecycle of the product. This means you won't just write code—you will ensure that code reaches production and performs flawlessly at every layer.
At Red Hat, our commitment to open source innovation extends beyond our products - it’s embedded in how we work and grow. Red Hatters embrace change – especially in our fast-moving technological landscape – and have a strong growth mindset. That's why we encourage our teams to proactively, thoughtfully, and ethically use AI to simplify their workflows, cut complexity, and boost efficiency. This empowers our associates to focus on higher-impact work, creating smart, more innovative solutions that solve our customers' most pressing challenges.
