08:19 <michal-chvatal[m> Hi everyone,

08:19 <michal-chvatal[m> We’re looking for an Embedded Software Engineer interested in Rust and embedded MCU systems to join my team in **Brno or Rožnov**. The role includes development with the **Embassy framework**. Feel free to contact me if you’d like more information.

08:22 <diondokter[m]> Shared it on my socials :D

08:22 <diondokter[m]> Very nice!

08:29 <thejpster[m]> (Janine Melnitz from Ghostbusters voice…)

08:29 <thejpster[m]> We got one!

08:29 <thejpster[m]> I guess technically two. Or three? I’m losing track.

08:33 <DnielBuga[m]> thejpster[m]: one what? 🤔

08:39 <thejpster[m]> A silicon vendor actively employing people to do Embedded Rust.

08:39 <thejpster[m]> Back in 2018 it was the stuff of dreams.

08:40 <thejpster[m]> michal-chvatal: I don't know if you ever saw https://github.com/ferrous-systems/s32z2-rust-demo/, or if you're strictly down in the Microcontroller end of things, but always happy to see more Rust on medium size chips too.

08:44 <DnielBuga[m]> I guess Espressif is showing a good example ;)

08:44 <ivmarkov[m]> If only Espressif would also work on cerifying its baremetal platform w.r.t. BLE, Wifi and Thread...

08:44 <ivmarkov[m]> * If only Espressif would also work on certifying its Rust baremetal platform w.r.t. BLE, Wifi and Thread...

08:46 <thejpster[m]> > I guess technically two. Or three? I’m losing track.

08:46 <thejpster[m]> Dániel Buga : hence ^^

08:46 <DnielBuga[m]> yeah yeah, Infineon is also trying so at least 3 :)

08:46 <thejpster[m]> We should have a reward chart or something. Silicon vendors can earn stickers by doing more Rust.

08:48 <diondokter[m]> DnielBuga[m]: (I know of one more taking concrete steps, but I think we have an NDA and they have not been public about yet afaik)

08:49 <DnielBuga[m]> I suspend Nordic to be around, but I don't know if they do anything embedded (yet), I recall something from ST, but dipping toes is not yet commitment

08:50 <Koen[m]> But with a ferris in there :)

09:00 <thejpster[m]> There's:... (full message at <https://catircservices.org/_irc/v1/media/download/AVQ5wykL4WJe3LotssTQH67jx_3y1p9FH8T8gAf1phYXzRapghlQiVuJU_Gj8AZ421dbF69Hizq0BKBPerNiXVW_8AAAAAAAAGNhdGlyY3NlcnZpY2VzLm9yZy9LYnRxbFNWYmNhdlZRRmVpU1BZQkdPdXg>)

09:00 <thejpster[m]> - We made our own PACs and HALs

09:00 <thejpster[m]> - We stopped shipping C support / wrote the C support in Rust

09:01 <thejpster[m]> s/us/it

09:02 <JamesMunns[m]> Off the top of my head:... (full message at <https://catircservices.org/_irc/v1/media/download/ARRkfqGCLTeO4P2HIr65Hinnw4oO5SsAKA0p52otK75gjy98Ek7NUE07XH99noNTxVhJqBZfG-ygGjhWdY-h0nC_8AAAAAAAAGNhdGlyY3NlcnZpY2VzLm9yZy9OVVlJYWhpZmZBWk55cFdnbUpCV3pLd20>)

09:06 <thejpster[m]> Pretty sure Nordic write their CLI tools in Rust

09:07 <JamesMunns[m]> oh, I think some nordic/zephyr folks have also done work to use Rust for tasks/threads too: https://nrfconnectdocs.nordicsemi.com/ncs/3.3.0/zephyr/develop/languages/rust/index.html

09:50 <michal-chvatal[m> <diondokter[m]> Shared it on my socials :D...

09:50 <michal-chvatal[m> Thanks a lot for the share! Highly appreciated

10:00 <amb12[m]> <JamesMunns[m]> Off the top of my head:...

10:00 <amb12[m]> Is there any sort of "hall of fame" anywhere? A prominent table listing MCU vendor (maybe divided down by their chip families), level of Rust support and a pointer to a dev board that's a particularly good place to start using their product set would be nice for people looking to see who's supporting what. And might encourage some to come out of the woodwork.

10:01 <diondokter[m]> amb12[m]: Closest thing is the awesome embedded Rust list, but that doesn't really state anything about quality or completeness

10:05 <amb12[m]> Yeah, there's a lot in that list and it's hard to pick out where to start. On the other hand, a table like I described might oversimplify things a bit too far.

10:07 <michal-chvatal[m> [@thejpster:matrix.org](https://matrix.to/#/@thejpster:matrix.org) Thanks for sharing, great to see Rust expanding to these chips! For now, our team is fully focused on smaller MCUs, but it's definitely interesting to watch.

10:54 <thejpster[m]> You can thank Eddy in Bucharest for helping that happen.
