About the Role

We are looking for a talented C++ QT Developer to design, build and maintain high-quality software applications and user interfaces using the QT framework. The successful candidate will work closely with product, UI/UX design, backend and QA teams to deliver robust, scalable and efficient solutions across desktop, embedded or cross-platform environments.

Examples of similar roles highlight responsibilities like: developing cross-platform applications using C++ and QT, implementing intuitive UI, optimising performance and working within Linux/Windows environments.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop, test and maintain software applications using C++ and the QT framework (Qt Widgets, QML/Qt Quick) across platforms (Windows, Linux, macOS or embedded)
• Collaborate with UI/UX designers and frontend/backend engineers to translate user requirements and interface designs into working code
• Write clean, efficient, maintainable code using good design patterns, modular architecture and following software engineering best practices
• Optimize application performance, memory usage and responsiveness; identify bottlenecks and drive improvements
• Participate in code reviews, peer-reviews, debugging sessions, unit/integration testing and documentation of design/specifications
• Support the build, release and deployment processes: version control (Git or similar), build systems (CMake/qmake), CI/CD integration
• Troubleshoot and resolve software defects, interface issues, system integration problems and performance regressions
• Stay up-to-date with QT framework enhancements, C++ standards (e.g., C++11/14/17) and industry best practices for UI/UX, cross-platform, or embedded applications

Familiarity with version control systems (e.g., Git), build instruments (CMake, qmake) and development workflows

Comfortable working in Linux and/or Windows environments; understanding of cross-platform development is a plus

Strong problem-solving skills, ability to work independently and collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams

Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English; Arabic is advantageous

Key Competencies & Behaviours

• Quality-oriented: writes code with attention to performance, readability and maintainability
