There are teams that are big into Rust and are hiring for it. They seem to be mostly in Windows and Azure, which makes sense: both have a huge need for safety and reliability (moreso than other areas). But Windows has been around for 35 years; it's a huge C++ codebase, so trying to turn that ship takes time. And just as you can't wholesale rewrite Linux in Rust, it'll take time to integrate Rust into the OS. I assume Azure is a bit easier since there are new services coming online all the time that aren't necessarily dependent on others. I imagine that as these safety- and performance-critical 'experiments' take off, you'll see other teams investing in a big way. (FD: I'm in the Windows org but don't have any sort of special knowledge of the decision calculus here.)
