There are very few open positions, though. Just check out the Rust newsletter - the open positions for each release can be counted on one hand.

I have the suspicions that Rust positions are typically filled in-house. Shopify, for example, adopted Rust, but AFAIK they did not hire anybody external to do so (nothing wrong with this, of course).

IMO there's only a tiny selection on that newsletter, it's just not a canonical source for rust jobs. E.g. and again anecdotal, we don't post our rust job openings there either as such more widely read publications are seldom a good fit, just like the monthly HN "who's hiring" thread - we don't want a flood of applications whom a good percentage of cannot even bother to read the few basic "must haves" for the job.

Also, in house fillings need employees that can program in rust too.

Our company (Prisma) is currently hiring Rust engineers. Remote jobs, office in Berlin for those who need it and interesting problems to solve.
