About the role
Design and implement native Windows components in modern C++ with deep integration into Win32, COM, Windows services, and system APIs. Work on device redirection, input, display, audio/video, USB, HID, and peripheral integration used by remote desktop and virtualization scenarios. Create and maintain solutions to ensure that keyboard input is secure from keyloggers running on the local client device (Windows Cloud Input Protection). Develop and maintain cross‑process, cross‑thread, and performance‑critical code paths where correctness, latency, and stability matter. Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or related technical field AND 4+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, or C#. OR equivalent experience. Solid experience in C or C++, with production‑quality, shipped code. Experience building native Windows applications or system components. 4+ years of professional development experience on Windows. Deep knowledge of Win32, COM, Windows services, and system internals. Experience with device integration, low‑level input, audio/video, USB, or driver‑adjacent code. Experience debugging performance, memory, and concurrency issues in native codebases. Familiarity with remote desktop or virtualization technologies such as RDP, PCoIP, or ICA. Experience working close to the OS, including diagnostics with ETW, dumps, and debuggers. Diagnose and fix issues spanning kernel / user‑mode boundaries, OS integration, drivers, services, and client applications. Participate in the full lifecycle: architecture, implementation, testing, deployment, and live‑site debugging using telemetry, dumps, and traces. Contribute to engineering excellence through code reviews, design reviews, testability, and long‑term maintainability.
