Senior Rust Engineer

Nikolai Vazquez began poking at the edges of Rust in 2017 and has since then developed a variety of cursed ways to use it, such as his Static Assertions crate. 
Nikolai’s career has spanned the entire stack, from web/mobile UIs to databases to reverse engineering assembly. When he’s abstaining from software, you can find Nikolai designing graphics, playing jazz piano, dancing Lindy Hop, or practicing Español and Deutsch.

Simplicity as a Service
November 02 2026 - 10:45 (45 min )

Trillions of dollars and thousands of lives... This is what software complexity costs companies, governments, and individuals.

To minimize this cost and maximize value, we must begin viewing software simplicity as a service to ourselves, to our team, and to society.

This is a practical talk for engineers and leaders seeking actionable guidance on creating high-value software with Rust.
