What Industries Use Rust Most?
If you didn't know, AWS stands for AMAZON Web Services, so yeah cloud/infrastructure is by far the leading industry for Rust. But, we're most excited about the growth in iot/robotics/automotive that we've been observing over the last several months. We think Rust is the language of the future for robotics!

Are Rust Jobs Only For Senior Devs?
We saw a record number of junior level jobs this month. Before you jump for joy, we did also slightly change our methodology for labeling jobs as junior. Nonetheless, we still think this month showed strong growth in entry-level Rust jobs.
