What Companies Use Rust Most?

What Industries Use Rust Most?
We continue to be extremely bullish on the future of Rust in the embedded space. We expect that growth in this space will be super-charged once Rust becomes an easier choice for safety-certified projects.

Even while we expect an explosion of Rust adoption broadly, we expect decreasing enthusiasm for Rust in domains like web development and light-weight data analysis where the language's performance benefits are outweighed by its noteworthy learning curve.
Are Rust Jobs Only For Senior Devs?
The number of junior level Rust jobs we found this month is larger than usual. However, the number is still relatively small. We continue to hold out a bit of optimism that as the Rust community matures there will be more investment in growing the pipeline of up and coming engineers.
