Rivac LabsRust Refactoring Specialist
Rust codebases accumulate crates, traits, and module boundaries that made sense at the time but now fight the borrow checker and each other — refactoring them safely requires real evidence that behavior hasn't changed, not just confidence that it probably hasn't. We do behavior-preserving refactoring of Rust crates, traits, and modules backed by test coverage and benchmarks, not guesswork about what should still work. This is for Rust teams whose codebase structure has become a drag on development speed but who can't afford a rewrite or a regression. You get a cleaner structure with the evidence that behavior was actually preserved throughout.
How We’d Approach This
A clear, staged plan — not a black box
- 1
Assess the current crate and trait structure against where it's actually causing friction for the team.
- 2
Refactor one module as a pilot, backed by existing or newly written tests proving behavior is unchanged.
- 3
Review the pilot refactor and its test evidence with your team before extending the pattern further.
- 4
Complete the refactor across remaining modules with benchmarks confirming no performance regression.
