High-performance C++ engineer role focused on ultra-low-latency systems, optimizing code from micro- to nanosecond scales. The team expects deep expertise in modern C++ (C++2a/2b), strict handling of undefined behaviour, and experience with lock-free programming and high-performance networking (kernel bypass). You'll work on new code with minimal legacy baggage on a compute-heavy estate and prioritize performance profiling and tuning.
Do you dream in pointers and measure time away from your keyboard in clock-cycles?
If so, Iβm working with a development team for whom latency isnβt a metric, itβs treated as an existential crisis. They will need you (person who unironically loves ππ¨π§π¬πππ±π©π«) to continue shaving off micros until theyβre down into the nanos.
They treat undefined behaviour for C++2a and C++2b like a personal insult and will be very keen to hear if you have made π¬ππ::ππ‘π«π¨π§π¨ cry before. Other things that matter to them would be experience with lock-free programming and strong networking chops (gm Mr./Mrs. Kernel Bypass).
Bonus points if youβve used π©ππ«π to format your morning routine as well!
What this team offers in return:
- A comically powerful compute estate
- No legacy code (okay, maybe 1 or 2 π π¨ππ¨ statements)
- A nerf gun arsenal for settling debates about RAII vs. GC
- Free therapy sessions (just kiddingβvalgrind βtool=callgrind is your therapy
