Good understanding of software performance and optimization techniques.
Experience with modern build systems, testing practices, version control, and development automation.
Strong understanding of software quality, maintainability, and engineering best practices.
Experience working throughout the full software development lifecycle.
Hands-on experience using modern AI-assisted development tools in day-to-day engineering work.
Strong written and verbal English communication skills.
Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively within a distributed engineering team.
Nice to Have:
Experience with programming languages in addition to C++.
Experience working on large or technically complex software products.
Experience designing reusable software components and internal development tools.
Experience improving build, testing, or development processes.
Experience working in environments where software reliability and performance are important.
Experience collaborating with multiple engineering or product stakeholders.
