Engineer - Rust Ecosystem Leased Labor

Huawei's Hilbert
Research Center is a product-motivated research and development center. We do research on industrial formal methods, weak memory model and concurrency, parallelization, and the full systems stack from hardware over operating system to web/rendering engines.
Open Harmony is a new open-source Operating System Framework developed by the Open Atom Foundation as part of the strategy to build an independent technology platform.

In our Hilbert Research Center
, we are working on making Rust a first-class citizen in the Open Harmony Ecosystem. Rust is already successfully used in several core Open Harmony system components. Now we need your help to lay the foundations for third-party developers to seamlessly support Open Harmony devices in their cross-platform applications and libraries.
