- Familiarity with performance tuning and optimization
- Experience owning features end-to-end in long-lived products
What You Will Be Doing
- Developing and enhancing core C++ functionality in a Windows desktop application
- Refactoring and improving legacy components for maintainability and performance
- Implementing new features tied to real-world engineering use cases
- Collaborating with a small, experienced engineering team on long-term product direction
Tech Breakdown
