Overview
Company
Impact
Profile match
Mozilla Corporation is the commercial subsidiary of the non-profit Mozilla Foundation, created in 2005 to develop and distribute Firefox and related products. It is unusual in structure: profits flow back to the foundation rather than to shareholders, and the great majority of revenue has historically come from a single search default agreement, most recently with Google. Headquartered in Mountain View with a largely distributed workforce, it has been trying to reduce that dependence through advertising products, a virtual private network, the data removal service Monitor and its Anonym advertising measurement business.
The role
You will take on the ongoing maintenance and engineering work in Firefox’s Graphics area (rendering, compositing, images, canvas, WebGL). You help keep the graphics code healthy.
Responsibilities
- Own day-to-day Graphics maintenance: bug fixes, regressions, test upkeep, incoming issues.
- Diagnose and fix graphics problems across platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux, Android).
- Carry code review and routine upkeep so the FTE engineers can focus on performance.
Definition of done
A healthy Graphics area, backlog and regressions kept down, with the team’s senior engineers freed to focus on performance.
Required qualifications
- Strong C++ and/or Rust.
- Knowledge of graphics frameworks and GPU architecture.
- Strong debugging and optimization in a multithreaded codebase.
- Able to work independently and lead technically in a large, mature codebase.
Preferred
- Shader languages; mobile/Android; open-source collaboration.
