- Apply a deep understanding of audio concepts, signal processing, and low-latency programming.

- Background in audio-production technology is a must, demonstrating familiarity with industry workflows, tools, and user expectations.

Desktop Application Development (macOS & Windows) :

- Lead the development of desktop-based C++ applications specifically for macOS, ensuring native look and feel, performance, and adherence to platform guidelines.

- Possess strong experience developing desktop-based C++ applications for Windows OS as well, ensuring cross-platform compatibility and maintainability where required.

- Work with relevant desktop application frameworks and APIs (e.g., Cocoa/Objective-C integration for macOS, Win32/MFC/Qt for Windows).

Codec Frameworks :

- Demonstrate working experience with Codec frameworks (e.g., for audio compression/decompression, encoding/decoding).

- Integrate and optimize audio codecs within applications.

Performance Optimization :

- Identify and resolve complex performance bottlenecks, especially in real-time audio processing contexts.

- Optimize code for CPU, memory, and power efficiency.

Debugging & Troubleshooting :

- Expertise in debugging complex C++ applications across different operating systems.

- Utilize advanced debugging tools and techniques.

Collaboration & Communication :

- Collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams including product managers, UX/UI designers, QA engineers, and other developers.

- Clearly communicate technical designs, challenges, and solutions.

Version Control :

- Proficient in using Git for source code management, including complex branching and merging strategies.

Qualifications :

- Extensive experience (typically 8+ years) as a C++ developer, with a significant portion focused on desktop application and audio software development.

- Mandatory hands-on C++ development experience for desktop applications on macOS.

- Extensive working experience on Audio software development using C++ is a must.

- A strong background in audio-production technology is mandatory.

- Proven experience developing desktop-based C++ applications for Windows OS.

- Working experience with Codec frameworks.

- Deep understanding of Object-Oriented Design (OOD), design patterns, and modern C++ standards (C++11/14/17/20).

- Experience with multi-threading, concurrency, and real-time programming.

- Strong problem-solving, analytical, and debugging skills.

- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.

- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Audio Engineering, or a related field.

Preferred Skills :

- Experience with cross-platform development frameworks (e.g., Qt, JUCE).

- Familiarity with digital signal processing (DSP) algorithms.

- Experience with build systems (e.g., CMake, Bazel).

- Knowledge of continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines.

- Contributions to open-source audio projects.

- Experience with VST, Audio Units (AU), or AAX plugin development.
