What Industries Use Rust Most?

Aerospace grew significantly this month. Though, it's not a mystery why. We were alerted (from multiple sources) to a full quartet of aerospace companies hiring for Rust that we hadn't previously included. Those are Blue Origin, Lockheed Martin, K2 Space, and Space Kinetic.

What Other Industries Use Rust?

Rust hiring is really focusing into those industries where the language truly shines. Despite the apparent "narrowing" of scope, this might actually be really good thing, leading to more density of Rust use and talent in certain industries.

Are Rust Jobs Only For Senior Devs?

The situation for juniors is well, not as bad as it has been in the past, but fairly stagnant. Mid and senior level seem to be neck and neck these days though.
