What is a DirectX?

A DirectX job typically involves working with Microsoft's DirectX API, which is used for developing high-performance multimedia applications, especially games and graphics software. Professionals in this role may work as graphics programmers, game developers, or software engineers specializing in rendering, shaders, and GPU optimization. They are responsible for utilizing DirectX technologies like Direct3D to create visually rich and efficient applications. Knowledge of C++, HLSL, and GPU architectures is often required for this role.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the DirectX position, and why are they important?

To thrive in a DirectX developer role, you need a deep understanding of graphics programming, C/C++ proficiency, and experience with the DirectX graphics API. Familiarity with shader development (HLSL), graphics debugging tools, and performance profiling is typically required, with many employers valuing a degree in computer science or related fields. Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and effective teamwork are also essential for success. These skills are critical to efficiently developing high-performance, visually compelling applications and collaborating smoothly with designers, artists, and other developers.

What are the biggest challenges faced by DirectX developers on game or graphics projects?

DirectX developers often face challenges related to optimizing graphics performance across a wide range of hardware and ensuring compatibility between different versions of DirectX and Windows operating systems. Debugging and troubleshooting rendering issues can be complex, requiring strong analytical skills and deep technical knowledge. In addition, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams—such as artists, designers, and QA—means adapting to evolving project requirements and integrating feedback efficiently. Overcoming these challenges not only improves technical proficiency but also enables DirectX developers to produce higher-quality, more immersive applications.

Job description

Overview
We have an opening for a Senior Software Engineer specializing in C#/.NET, with 8+ years of experience graphics programming, and Windows desktop application development. The successful candidate will be part of our Software Development Team and assist in maintaining, enhancing, and developing creating new features for our desktop application (StormWiseTM StormWiseTM), working closely with our software engineers and subject-matter experts. The candidate's initial primary focus will be learning and supporting the architecture of the existing codebase. Ultimately, the candidate will be tasked with optimizing the existing codebase and developing new features and enhancements.
Streamline Technologies Inc. is a software development firm located in the Orlando,FL area, specializing in water resources engineering applications and flood forecasting.
Our philosophy and reputation are built on providing innovative software solutions such as the widely used hydrodynamic stormwater model, StormWiseTM (formerly ICPR ®), and our flood forecasting technology, FloodWiseTM.
Our water resources and flood forecasting applications include complex physics-based mathematical models that simulate the rainfall-runoff process, natural & man-made drainage system hydraulics, groundwater flow, water quality, and green stormwater infrastructure. Our applications center around a geospatial graphical interface that utilizes aerial imagery, thematic-based polygons, and digital elevation models.
#LI-onsite
Responsibilities
  • Own and evolve the geospatial rendering engine, the cartographic display layer that visualizes aerial imagery, thematic polygon layers, terrain surfaces, and drainage networks within our desktop platform
  • Build, maintain, and enhance the drawing and editing tools that engineers use to create, modify, and inspect hydraulic/hydrologic model geometry directly on the map
  • Implement and optimize 2D/3D rendering pipelines using DirectX (raster tiles, vector overlays, TINs, contour surfaces)
  • Develop computational geometry algorithms for spatial operations such as polygon intersection, triangulation, coordinate transformations, and surface interpolation
  • Integrate geospatial data formats and coordinate systems (shapefiles, geodatabases, raster formats)
  • Collaborate directly with subject-matter experts to optimize the existing codebase and develop new features and enhancements.
  • Participate in code reviews, technical documentation, unit testing, and continuous improvement of engineering practices
  • Mentor junior staff and assist with the technical direction of our platform

Qualifications
Required Skills
  • Strong proficiency in C# / .NET development (Framework 4.8+, WinForms)
  • Experience with DirectX, OpenGL, or a comparable graphics API for custom 2D/3D rendering (not just consuming a charting library)
  • Strong background in vector and raster display technologies, - built or substantially extended a mapping, GIS/CAD, or geospatial visualization layer
  • Strong background in geometry and linear algebra as applied to graphics or GIS (projections, transformations, spatial indexing)
  • Experience with programming vector and raster display technologies
  • Experience with Git, branching strategies, CI/CD pipelines, and modern software engineering best practices
  • Ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly to cross-functional and non-technical stakeholders
  • Experience with GDAL, SlimDX, or SharpDX
  • Strong debugging skills using Visual Studio, VS Code, and diagnostic tools

Preferred but required
  • Familiarity with GIS concepts and processes - coordinate reference systems, map projections, spatial databases, and geoprocessing
  • General knowledge of ArcGIS, QGIS, Global Mapper, Civil3D, or OpenRoads
  • Experience with C++
  • Basic knowledge in H&H modeling and/or water resources engineering
  • Experience working with large language models (LLMs) such as Claude or similar AI systems to support software development, data analysis, and workflow automation.

Experience
  • A Bachelor's or Master's (preferred) degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, or a related field
  • Minimum of 8 years of software development experience
