• Identify complex technical issues and determine appropriate corrective actions.
• Influence technical direction across multiple projects and collaborate with cross‑functional teams.
• Mentor junior developers and share best practices across the organization.

Software Engineering Responsibilities

• Own the complete lifecycle of graphical software components, from requirements analysis through deployment and long‑term maintenance.
• Lead software design activities and participate in technical reviews.
• Deliver high software quality through continuous improvement of functionality, performance, maintainability and development productivity.
• Define and promote engineering standards, testing strategies and development best practices.

Problem Solving

• Resolve complex technical and performance issues involving visualization, graphics rendering and large‑scale scientific datasets.
• Evaluate and recommend new technologies, frameworks and development approaches.

Qualifications

Required:

• Master’s degree (or higher) in Computer Science or a related field with strong programming experience, or equivalent hands‑on experience
• Strong proficiency in modern C++ and experience working in large native codebases
• Familiarity with Qt or comparable desktop GUI frameworks
• Understanding of object‑oriented design, API design, and maintainable C++ interfaces
• Experience debugging native applications and investigating crashes, memory issues, or performance bottlenecks
• Familiarity with CMake/build systems and the software development lifecycle: building, testing, packaging, and releasing applications
• Strong problem‑solving skills and clear communication in a collaborative engineering team
• Curious, pragmatic, and eager to learn complex domain software

Preferred:

• Experience with OpenGL/GLSL or other real‑time visualization/rendering technologies
• Foundation in 3D math, linear algebra, coordinate transforms, or numerical methods
• Experience with multi-threaded or parallel programming, e.g. std::thread, Qt threading, or OpenMP
• Experience working on cross‑platform, large‑scale, or legacy software projects
• Exposure to scientific, geoscience, seismic, imaging, CAD, simulation, or other data‑heavy visualization domains
• Familiarity with Python/C++ integration or scripting APIs
• Working knowledge of Java, or willingness to work across both native C++ and Java codebases
• Basic understanding of operating systems concepts, file I/O, and performance profiling
• Basic networking/IPC knowledge, if relevant to integration work
