I want a job as a Rust programer

At this point in my life, I have accumulated many years of experience as a programmer. I have strong experience in both backend and frontend, databases, and high-performance systems, and I’ve reached a point where I’m happy with the code I write. I’ve programmed in all the C languages, Java, Python, TypeScript, JavaScript, Flutter, Ruby, etc.

A few years ago I came across an article talking about Go and Rust, and from that moment I fell in love with the Rust programming language. I’ve used it in personal projects and I find it excellent; it has taught me good practices and its performance is unbeatable. As an engineer, I believe we should use it everywhere to improve the performance of future systems.

I live in Madrid, and for some time now I’ve wanted to work with Rust, but I haven’t been able to find offers that match my current salary (I understand that I can’t ask for the same pay for something in which I don’t yet have professional experience). I just wanted to share this.
