Job Summary:

We are seeking a focused and highly skilled C++ Software Engineer with strong, hands-on experience in Windows and Linux development, containerized environments, and virtualization platforms. This role involves contributing to a modern, cloud-native software stack with recent and relevant experience in Visual C++, Kubernetes, and KubeVirt. If you're passionate about software engineering and thrive in environments that require deep technical expertise, we want to talk to you.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design, develop, and maintain C++ applications on Windows and Linux platforms.

  • Work with Kubernetes clusters and Docker containers to deploy and manage applications.

  • Integrate and support KubeVirt for virtualized workloads within Kubernetes.

  • Lead the effort to migrate existing Windows-based C++ software to Linux, optimizing for performance and maintainability.

  • Write robust unit tests using frameworks such as Google Test, CppUnit, or similar.

  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including DevOps, QA, and Product Management to deliver reliable, scalable solutions.

  • Participate in code reviews, debugging, and root cause analysis of complex issues.

Required Qualifications:

  • 5+ years of experience in Visual C++ development on the Windows platform recent or current.

  • 1-2 years of hands-on experience working with Kubernetes and Docker containers.

  • Experience with KubeVirt or equivalent virtualization platforms in cloud-native environments.

  • Proficient in both Windows and Linux C++ development.

  • Demonstrated ability to convert or port Windows-based C++ code to Linux environments (preferred).

  • Strong background in unit testing with practical experience in tools like Google Test, CppUnit, or equivalent.

  • Focused software engineering experience with a strong emphasis on C++ and cloud-native systems not generalized across unrelated stacks.

Preferred Skills:

  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and Git-based workflows.

  • Exposure to system-level programming and performance optimization.

  • Experience working in Agile or Scrum environments.
