About the Ireland Research Center

Ireland Research Center's mission is to position Huawei as a recognized technology leader and a global provider of system solutions for terminal and computing devices, in the cloud or telecom infrastructure. To achieve this, we are building an industry-recognized multi-discipline Research Centre of experts with a focus on medium-term to long-term issues. The IRC will work closely with an open, innovative ecosystem with Huawei customers to address real-world issues. The IRC will also engage with key European universities to build a basic research capability to support Huawei technical projects.

About The Role

Huawei Ireland Advanced Language Engineering (ADA) lab is committed to develop in Rust memory safe and concurrent system products for mobile, cloud, and telecom. As part of this strategic objective, we will explore advanced language features in Rust and disruptive approaches to accelerate its adoption. Depending on the use cases, however, there is a number of engineering trade-offs to bring competitiveness to the product line with innovation.

We are looking for an active Researcher to join us to tackle such challenges. You will provide technical leadership in Rust as part of the team that is spearheading Huawei’s software/hardware engineering capability. You will be the person shaping the next generation programming language features for Huawei products and leading (and guiding the direction of) the work that impacts tens of thousands of software engineers at Huawei.

If you are passionate about engineering programming languages and frameworks in particular, if you enjoy challenging the status of quo, and if you are interested in solving problems at ultra-large-scale in terms of both the size of codebase (billions of lines of code) and the number of engineers (tens of thousands of engineers), this is the opportunity for you. This opportunity is truly unique, you will be working with the world-leading colleagues in the Rust community with language, compiler, library, and development tool expertise. You probably would never find an opportunity to make such a huge impact in this area at such a large scale and diverse software development environment anywhere else on this planet.
