Senior Software Engineer – Automation Platform (C++ /.NET)
Job Description
We’re investing in and expanding our engineering team as we take our automation platform into its next chapter. This is an opportunity to join a team doing ambitious, high-impact work — modernizing core technology, solving hard engineering problems, and helping shape where the platform goes next. If you enjoy meaningful systems work and want your technical decisions to carry real weight, we’d love to talk.
You’ll help build and evolve the software that brings continuous testing and effortless automation to enterprise applications.
What You’ll Do
Design and develop core platform capabilities in modern C++, with reliability, performance, and extensibility as first-class concerns
Help shape the architecture and technical direction as the platform continues to grow and evolve
Build and strengthen components that run reliably in customer environments
Tackle hard, low-level engineering problems: inter-process communication, native integrations, and system-level programming
Write thorough automated tests and contribute to a strong testing culture — unit, integration, and beyond
Review teammates’ code, share knowledge, and help raise engineering practices across the team
Partner directly with customers — jump on calls to understand their environments, troubleshoot alongside them, and turn real-world feedback into product improvements
Collaborate with a talented team distributed across the globe, sharing ideas across time zones and cultures
What We’re Looking For
5+ years of professional software development experience
Strong, proven experience in modern C++ (C++17/20)— multi-year hands-on development in native/cross-platform environments. We expect fluency with:
Modern language features (RAII, smart pointers, move semantics, templates,constexpr, the STL)
Concurrency and parallelism— threads, async tasks, synchronization primitives, atomics, and the C++ memory model, with the ability to write correct, high-performance multithreaded code
Clean, maintainable, well-structured C++ and modern build tooling (e.g. CMake)
Memory management, performance profiling, and debugging in native environments
Inter-process communication, native integrations, and low-level system programming
Cross-platform development across Windows and Linux
Experience with C# / .NET Core— valued alongside C++, as parts of the platform are built in .NET for extensions and integrated services. Strong C++ engineers who are newer to .NET are encouraged to apply; we’ll support you in ramping up
Solid testing knowledge and discipline— you write unit and integration tests as a natural part of development, are familiar with testing frameworks (e.g. GoogleTest/Catch2) and practices such as mocking and test-driven development
Hands-on experience with AI-assisted development tools(e.g. Cursor, Claude Code) — you use AI to accelerate coding, code review, and problem-solving, and are keen to push these tools further
A customer-first mindset— comfortable jumping on customer calls and turning first-hand feedback into better software
Thrive in a globally distributed team— you communicate clearly and collaborate well across time zones and cultures
Experience working in and succeeding within agile development teams
Comfortable with change and continuous evolution of product direction
A get-your-hands-dirty attitude: not afraid to pick up a new technology or pattern quickly
A proven track record of producing high-quality, maintainable code and applying engineering best practices
Nice to Have (Not Required)
Experience with cloud services development, ideally on Azure
Experience with Docker and Kubernetes
Experience with DevOps pipelines and Cloud Operations (monitoring, observability, logging)
Experience developing automation engines or background service architectures
