• Experience with real‑time communication technologies like WebSockets, Microsoft Fluid and supporting data formats (JSON, Protobuf)
• Demonstrated excellence in cross‑functional collaboration, with experience working across multiple engineering teams and stakeholders
• Strong understanding of algorithms, data structures, concurrency, distributed systems, and browser event loops and rendering pipelines
• Experience with Electron or Tauri

• Experience in an agile development environment
• Ability to work in a start‑up fashion even within a big company (things will move fast)
• Good problem‑solving skills
• Good communication skills
• Jenkins, Travis, or other CI/CD system knowledge

• MS Degree in Computer Science or similar technical field
