Contract (6 months) or Freelance - Salary is not a constraint for the right talent
If you love programming, optimizing to the microsecond, and writing elegant, modern C++. let's talk.
We're building high-performance systems that push hardware and libraries to their limits, and we're looking for someone who gets a thrill from turning hot paths into cool ones.
What you'll do :
- Design and build high-performance, reliable, concurrent systems that scale.
- Profile, debug, and squeeze every last drop of performance from critical code paths.
- Ship clean, tested code and own problems end-to-end-from design to production support.
- Collaborate with product and design to turn ideas into fast, robust features.
- Raise the bar on code quality through reviews, pairing, and thoughtful documentation.
General C++ requirements (the essentials) :
Deep command of modern C++ (C++17 / 20+), the STL, templates, RAII, and move semantics.Fluency with memory management, value vs. reference semantics, and zero-cost abstractions.Solid grasp of concurrency (threads, atomics, lock-free patterns) and async design.Comfort with profiling & debugging tools (perf, VTune, Instruments, Address / UB / Thread Sanitizers).Strong habits around testing (unit / integration), CI, and code review.Ability to read docs / specs, benchmark alternatives, and make pragmatic trade-offs.Nice to have (big pluses) :
Built full-stack or rich-client apps using C++ UI frameworks such as Dear ImGui, GTK, or Qt, or paired a C++ core with a web backend.Working knowledge of video / audio streaming (codecs, containers, latency, synchronization).Good understanding of image processing (filters, color spaces, SIMD / NEON / AVX acceleration).Experience with GPU APIs (CUDA, OpenCL, Vulkan) or vectorization (SSE / AVX).Familiarity with networking (UDP / TCP), real-time constraints, and low-latency IO.Comfort building portable code across Linux / macOS / Windows; CMake or Bazel proficiency.How you'll know you're thriving here :
You enjoy simplifying gnarly problems without losing performance.You use data (benchmarks, flame graphs) to guide decisions.You write APIs others love to use and maintain.You take ownership, communicate clearly, and bias toward shipping.Our stack (representative) :
C++11, STL, fmt, GitCMake / Bazel / Meson, clang / gcc / msvc, SanitizersQt / Dear ImGui / GTK (role-dependent)Optional : FFmpeg, WebRTC, OpenCV, CUDA / OpenCL(ref : hirist.tech)
