Accelya is looking for an experienced Senior C++ Developer who enjoys working at a low level, focusing on performance, efficiency, and direct control over system resources. If you thrive in writing code without relying on higher-level libraries and find satisfaction in optimizing every aspect of performance, this role is for you.
In this position, you will work on building efficient, low-overhead software solutions for both Windows and Linux environments, creating custom data structures, algorithms, and memory management solutions.
Key Responsibilities :
- Design, develop, and optimize low-level C++ code , focusing on performance and efficiency with minimal reliance on higher-level abstractions.
- Write custom data structures and algorithms tailored to system needs, ensuring high performance and low resource usage.
- Handle manual memory management , optimize CPU cycles , and implement custom allocators and memory pools for performance-critical applications.
- Troubleshoot and debug complex performance issues, memory leaks , and low-level system bugs using tools such as GDB and WinDbg .
- Maintain a strong focus on writing clean, maintainable code while ensuring high performance and stability across both Windows and Linux platforms .
- Write and execute unit tests to validate system-level software, ensuring high standards of reliability and performance.
Required Skills and Experience :
Hands-on experience in C++ programming , with a focus on low-level, system-level, and performance-critical applications .Solid experience with manual memory management , including custom allocators, raw pointers , and low-level resource management.Strong knowledge of multi-threading, synchronization, and concurrency in C++ , using primitives such as atomic operations, spinlocks, and mutexes .Expertise in systems programming and understanding of OS internals on both Windows and Linux (kernel, memory management, file systems, etc.).Ability to optimize software for both CPU cycles and memory usage , ensuring high efficiency and minimal resource consumption.Proficient in debugging and profiling tools .Extensive experience with CMake, Visual Studio, GCC , or other build and development tools on both Windows and Linux platforms.Experience with unit testing frameworks such as Google Test .Strong understanding of system architecture , including hardware-software interaction, CPU, memory, and I / O.Experience working in containerized environments .Skills Required
