TCS; Hyderabad; On-site; INR 1,200,000 - 2,100,000; Full time

Job summary

TCS is seeking a skilled C++ developer to design, implement, and maintain high-quality Linux-based applications using modern C++ features. The role emphasizes STL usage, concurrency, and architectural patterns within an Agile team.

You will contribute to performance optimization, code reviews, and technical documentation, while collaborating with QA, DevOps, and product teams to ensure scalable and robust software delivery.

Qualifications

• Strong hands-on expertise in Modern C++ (11/14/17) features such as smart pointers, lambdas, concurrency, move semantics, auto/type inference on Linux OS.
• Deep understanding of STL (containers, algorithms, iterators, function objects).
• Proven experience in multithreading (mutexes, locks, condition variables, atomics, thread pools).
• Solid knowledge of Object-Oriented Design and design patterns (Factory, Singleton, Observer, Strategy, etc.).
• Strong grasp of Data Structures & Algorithms and complexity analysis.
• Experience with build tools like CMake, Make, or GCC
• Familiarity with debugging/profiling tools (GDB, Valgrind, Perf).

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain high-quality C++ applications on Linux.
• Use Modern C++ (C++11/14/17) features to write clean, efficient, and robust code.
• Implement and optimize components using STL, templates, and generic programming techniques.
• Develop multi-threaded and concurrent modules ensuring thread safety and scalability.
• Participate in architectural discussions, apply design patterns, and contribute to technical decision-making.
• Write efficient algorithms and ensure good time/space complexity.
• Debug, profile, and optimize performance-critical sections of the application.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (QA, DevOps, Product) in Agile/Scrum environment.
• Perform code reviews and provide constructive feedback to team members.
• Create and maintain technical documentation.
• Design, develop, and maintain high-quality C++ applications on Linux.
