Jigzi | frontend Rust Wasm Developer | Full-Time | Remote
You read that right- frontend and Rust in the same sentence. We are building a largeish web-based platform in the edtech space. While several of the technical challenges in this new frontier have been solved- there are many more puzzles to go!

Our framework of choice is Dominator + futures-signals, though we bail out to lit-element for custom elements and layout (so a bit of typescript and html stuff too). You're not expected to be familiar with Dominator yet, you'll be given time and flexibility to learn that on the job, but you should know Rust well and be somewhat familiar with the modern approach to rendering DOM in the web world (declarative, reactive, functional).
In terms of the product- it's open-source and intended to be forkable for any educational arena. However, it is spearheaded and funded through Jewish Interactive which will be using it in around 600 Jewish Dayschools. Our focus at the moment is getting this initial version out. Initial private beta will be this month, and public MVP a few months later.
The entire premise of this product is that it is modular, and there are plans to add more kinds of modules later (e.g. WebGL-powered, perhaps via an ECS like Shipyard or Bevy)
If you have a Rustacean mentality - that is, you are more than happy to accept compiler errors and language complexity for the sake of stability, speed, scalability, and all the other awesomeness that Rust provides, please reach out!
