Speaker:
Marcus Grass – Rust Developer – Embark Studios
I'm Marcus Grass, a software engineer working with Rust at Embark Studios, a video game company.My previous experiences have been in Java microservices at companies with high security and performance demands, an online bank and an online pharmacy, as well as some Python ML work.When coding for fun I often work on fairly low-level Linux applications, the most complex one being a pure Rust X11 window manager where I try to push the boundaries of efficient Rust code without making the code completely unmaintainable.
