Job description

Veeva is a pioneer in building the industry cloud for life sciences, helping companies speed medicines to patients, and we are expanding into new markets. As one of the fastest-growing SaaS companies in history, we surpassed $2B in revenue in our last fiscal year, with significant growth potential ahead.

At the heart of Veeva are our values: Do the Right Thing, Customer Success, Employee Success, and Speed. We’re not just any public company – in 2021, we made history by becoming a public benefit corporation (PBC), legally committed to balancing the interests of customers, employees, society, and investors.

As a Work Anywhere company, you can work from home or in the office on any given day, choosing to work where you are most productive.

The Role

We are building from the ground up a new enterprise software platform and need a Principal Engineer with deep Rust expertise—especially in Async Rust, to help create a strong foundation. We’re looking for someone who has built and scaled a great Rust application, navigated the challenges of growth, and understands the road ahead. This is a rare opportunity for someone who thrives in greenfield environments to shape the foundation and help build something truly lasting from the ground up. Be a founding member of the platform!

What You'll Do

Start by building on and enhancing the foundations of the application we've established, then transition into leading new, greenfield development

Take full ownership of key subsystems (e.g. user management, workflow engines, job queues, etc.), evolving them from early-stage implementation to mature, scalable solutions in a multi-tenant enterprise application

Provide deep technical expertise in Rust and Async Rust, guiding architecture, design, and code reviews

Shape our approach to production observability for Rust-based systems

Ensure high-quality, low-drama production with comprehensive testing

Mentor junior engineers, fostering technical excellence and a strong engineering culture

Requirements

Extensive experience building multi-tenant SaaS enterprise applications

Strong background in systems software development, using C, C++, or Java. If Java, some experience focused on low-level systems work

Deep expertise in Rust and Async Rust

Proven track record of seeing projects through from early-stage development to mid/late-stage success with reasonable usage and scale

Comfortable taking on multiple roles and adapting to shifting priorities in a fast-moving environment

Skilled at aligning technical execution with business priorities to drive product success

We are looking for strong mentors with a proven record of making your team better

Nice to Have

Has contributed small fixes or improvements to a major Async Rust library like Tokio

Some Java experience as some of our developers have a Java background, and a shared vocabulary would be valuable
