THE SITUATION

You already code. You know some Rust. But getting a Rust job?

You've done the tutorials. Maybe even a side project. You can read Rust code and write basic programs. But when it comes to landing an actual Rust position, whether for a raise, a remote role, or a career change, you hit a wall. That's a different game entirely. And most developers spend 1 to 2 years trying to figure it out alone.

THE PROBLEM

Here's what most Rust learners run into

Your project has no external feedback.

You may have solid code, but no experienced engineer is helping you assess its architecture, testing, or production-readiness.

Technical interviews feel unfamiliar.

You need a clear way to practice ownership, lifetimes, async, and systems design against the expectations of Rust teams.

Learning alone slows decisions.

Without a feedback loop, it is hard to know whether your code is production-ready or only works on your machine.

Your current stack may not show systems depth.

A reviewed Rust project can make your engineering judgment, architecture, and ability to work with systems concerns easier to evaluate.

Every month you wait, you leave €1 250 on the table.

Rust devs earn 20–30% more — and it compounds

Every year you stay in your current stack, the gap between you and a Rust engineer widens. Salaries compound. So does the delay.

The early-mover window is still open

Rust adoption is still early. Qualified candidates are scarce. That's your unfair advantage right now — in 2–3 years, competition will look very different.

Your current stack is losing value fast

AI is compressing the value of frontend and scripting roles every quarter. The pivot window is open now. It won't stay open forever.

THE PAYOFF

WHAT'S INCLUDED

How we get you there

The mentorship runs over 3 months. Pricing is set on the discovery call, because how much is done with you versus done for you (the leverage project, the portfolio, the job applications) changes the scope from one person to the next.

Weekly 1-on-1 video sessions

Live calls focused entirely on your goals, your blockers, your code. No group. No distractions.

Code review on YOUR actual project

Not toy examples. We review your real codebase: architecture, patterns, production-readiness.

Daily async access. I reply every day.

Stuck between sessions? Send a message. You get a real answer, not a link to the docs.

Full platform access

All courses, exercises, and tools included. Everything you need to go from your current level to job-ready.

Technical interview prep & mock sessions

We simulate the real interview. You know what's coming: ownership questions, async, systems design, and how to answer.

HOW IT WORKS

3 pillars of the mentorship

1

Positioning

We define how to present your Rust skills to the market. CV, GitHub, portfolio. You stop looking like a learner and start looking like a hire.

2

Project

We work on your real project together. Code reviews, architecture decisions, production patterns. You build something you can show and explain.

3

Job Interviews

We simulate the real thing. Ownership, lifetimes, async, systems design. You walk in knowing what's coming and how to answer under pressure.

OUR COLLABORATION

Our criteria for working together

✅ We work together if...

  • You already code in any language. You are not starting from zero.
  • You have a clear, concrete goal: land a Rust job, get a raise, go remote.
  • You have a real deadline, not a vague "maybe someday" intention.
  • You are committed to doing the work between sessions, not just showing up.
  • You want honest, direct feedback, not just validation and encouragement.

❌ We don't work together if...

  • You're just casually curious about Rust with no specific goal in mind.
  • You want someone to do the learning for you. Mentorship requires your effort.
  • You're not willing to ship real code and get uncomfortable.
  • You expect results without a commitment to consistent weekly work.
  • You're looking for a cheerleader, not a straight-talking technical partner.
