Role Description:
As a Software Developer, you’ll be responsible for designing, optimizing, and maintaining our core applications and infrastructure. Working alongside a skilled team of developers, you’ll contribute at both the system and application levels, focusing on low-latency programming, concurrency, memory optimization, and precise code design. This role demands expert knowledge of system internals and a relentless drive to push systems to their maximum performance potential. If the following resonates with you, we would love to welcome you to our team.


Job Responsibilities:
  • Architect and develop low-latency applications in C++ and Python, with precise tuning of memory usage, CPU affinity, and hardware interactions
  • Document code intricacies, architecture decisions, and optimization strategies to foster knowledge sharing across teams
  • Conduct in-depth debugging and profiling of new and legacy code, implementing fixes that maintain or enhance performance
  • Evaluate system performance and refine technical operations
  • Write quality, highly performant code (C++ or Python)

Qualifications:
  • 5+ years in Software Development, preferably in low-latency or performance-sensitive environments
  • Familiarity with network protocols, packet analysis, and optimization techniques for low-latency systems
  • Advanced proficiency in Python and/or C++
  • Excellent communication skills within a collaborative environment
  • Demonstrated ability to respond promptly and accurately in a fast-paced, dynamic environment
  • Strong skills in solving complex mathematical and coding challenges

Please Apply If:
  • You are enthusiastic about the latest developments in C++ and Python
  • You have hands-on experience with high-performance infrastructure
  • You enjoy performance tuning and digging into low-level system details
  • You’re comfortable navigating large codebases
  • You think of ways to solve complex coding challenges even when you’re off the clock

Application Requirement:
Write a program in C++ that takes in a file as input and reverses every line and puts it in a different file. Try to do this with as little memory footprint as possible and as fast as possible.
