Backend by Trade, Rust by Choice
Rajeev Edmonds is a Rust developer with a strong foundation in systems programming and backend technologies. He began his career as a C programmer, developing Interactive Voice Response System (IVRS) applications for both Windows and Linux platforms.
Over the years, he's built deep expertise in backend development, with a particular focus on Rust-based solutions — creating high-performance command-line applications, developer tools, and system-level software that emphasize reliability, efficiency, and maintainability.

What I Focus On
Three areas where most of my working hours go.
[backend]
Backend & Systems
Reliable, efficient backend services and system-level software, with an eye on maintainability over cleverness.
[pkg]
Developer Utilities
Small, well-scoped tools and libraries that solve one problem cleanly instead of ten problems poorly.
