Nimis Consulting
Backend Engineer (Rust)
Massimizzi le sue possibilità di successo assicurandosi che il suo CV e le sue competenze corrispondano ai requisiti di questa posizione.
Location: Rome, Italy
Work Model: In-person first, with hybrid flexibility
Contract: CCNL Metalmeccanici PMI (details in Compensation section)
At Nimis Consulting, we build software for organizations that require security, reliability, and long-term maintainability from day one.
We're growing our engineering team and looking for a Backend Engineer to help design and build modern distributed systems. The first assignment will involve the development of a new customer-facing product, working alongside engineers who care deeply about software quality, automation, observability, and secure-by-design architectures.
We don't expect candidates to arrive with deep Rust expertise. Strong backend fundamentals, familiarity with distributed systems concepts, sound engineering judgment, and the ability to learn are more important to us.
What You'll Do
Design and develop backend services in Rust
Build distributed and asynchronous systems
Contribute to architecture and technical decision-making
Improve system reliability, observability, security, and automation
Work primarily on long-term products rather than short-lived implementations
What We're Looking For
2+ years of professional experience developing backend applications
Familiarity with the challenges of distributed and asynchronous systems, including concepts such as eventual consistency, idempotency, and event-driven architectures
Proficiency with Git workflows
Familiarity with Linux and containerized environments
Able to comfortably read and write technical documentation, design documents, and engineering discussions in English
Strong engineering judgment to ensure correctness, security, performance, and maintainability
Comfortable using AI-assisted development tools to increase effectiveness while maintaining critical thinking, code ownership, and engineering rigor
Curiosity, pragmatism,
and willingness to continuously learn
Nice to Have
Professional experience with Rust
TypeScript knowledge
Familiarity with gRPC and Protocol Buffers
Familiarity with OpenTelemetry (OTel)
Familiarity with Kubernetes and cloud-native runtime environments
How We Work
Engineers participate in technical decisions and solution design throughout the software lifecycle. We value ownership, collaboration, and thoughtful engineering.
We build software with a DevSecOps mindset. Development, operations, observability, automation, and security are considered part of the same engineering problem rather than separate disciplines.
Why Join Now?
Nimis Consulting is expanding its software engineering capabilities alongside its established consulting business.
Joining now means working in a team where individual contributions remain highly visible. Engineers have meaningful influence over technical decisions, engineering practices, and product evolution.
Compensation & Benefits
C3 (€32k-35k): Candidates able to contribute independently with minimal onboarding.
C2 (€27k-30k): Candidates with strong potential who require additional growth on our stack.
Additional benefits include
Meal vouchers
Annual welfare credit
Supplementary health insurance
Work Model
This role is based in Rome.
We support hybrid work while maintaining a strong preference for regular in-person collaboration. One remote day per week is guaranteed, with additional flexibility depending on project and team needs. xpavfwm
