(Senior) Software Engineer (Rust / Real-Time Systems) (m / w / d)

About SensitHaptics

SensitHaptics builds the leading haptics technology for immersive gaming and professional sim racing. Our proprietary Metahaptics technology combines real-time data processing, low-latency audio / haptics generation and tightly integrated hardware control to deliver industry-leading immersion.

Our software stack runs close to the system , processes telemetry and simulation data in real time, and drives haptic hardware with extremely low latency. This is not a typical app role. It is systems engineering applied to gaming.

The Role

We are looking for an experienced software engineer to work on our Windows-based core software stack.

You will maintain and extend existing simulation integrations and implement new ones end-to-end. You will work primarily in Rust , with occasional React work for UI adjustments (~90% Rust / systems work and ~10% UI).

You will operate with a high degree of independence and ownership.

Tasks

• Design, implement and maintain real-time, low-latency software components in Rust
• Process and analyze live data streams from simulations and games (UDP, shared memory, custom protocols)
• Implement low-level audio and haptics signal generation
• Develop and optimize multi-threaded systems with strict latency and stability requirements
• Maintain and extend existing Windows-only implementations; build new integrations independently
• Write integration and end-to-end tests for complex, real-time systems
• Help maintain and improve the CI / CD pipeline
• Occasionally implement small UI changes in React (Tauri frontend)
• Collect feedback from the community and incorporate it into feature improvements
