What we're looking for
  • Strong C++ skills and experience working in a large native codebase
  • Experience building user-facing tools, editor features, and complex interactive workflows
  • Experience building clients that interact with asynchronous or networked services
  • Strong understanding of parallelism, networking, latency, and failure handling
