- Partner with adjacent teams on integrations and tooling
Required Skills and Qualifications
- 4+ years building production C++ systems
- Strong proficiency in modern C++ (C++17/20) and the standard library
- Experience with multi-threading, concurrency, and lock-free data structures
- Familiarity with profiling and performance analysis tools
- Working knowledge of build systems (CMake, Bazel) and Git
- Solid understanding of computer architecture and memory models
What You'll Bring
- Curiosity to dig into systems and turn findings into shipped improvements
- Strong written communication and ability to explain technical decisions
- A test-and-learn mindset; you ship fast, measure, and iterate
- Comfort working asynchronously across time zones
What We Offer
- Fully remote, flexible work hours
- Performance-based bonus structure
- Annual learning & development stipend
- Health and wellness benefits (varies by location)
- Opportunity to work on high-scale, real-world impact projects
