• Oversee the integration of low-level components using COM and ActiveX, ensuring seamless functionality across systems.
• Taking care of end to end Scrum Ceremony
• Architect and implement real-time, multi-threaded event-driven systems that meet scalability and performance requirements.
• Leverage your deep knowledge of Windows Internals to build high-level, robust solutions for system-level programming.
• Mentor and guide development teams, sharing best practices for software design, coding, and testing.
• Drive the adoption of modern development methodologies and continuous improvement in the software development lifecycle.
• Ensure that software is optimized for performance, scalability, and long-term maintainability.
• Identify and address software bottlenecks and optimize code to meet stringent performance metrics.

Build Engineering Responsibilities:

• Spearhead the creation and optimization of complex build and release automation pipelines using Makefile scripting, InstallShield, and related tools.
• Own and drive the build and deployment processes to ensure smooth integration across environments and teams.
• Lead the management of Perforce version control, enforcing best practices for source code management and versioning.
• Establish and improve Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Deployment (CD) pipelines to streamline development and deployment workflows.
• Troubleshoot complex build and release issues, providing timely resolutions and root cause analysis.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure the build system integrates seamlessly with development workflows and deployment processes.
• Develop strategies for optimizing build performance, reducing build times, and improving system reliability.
• Provide leadership and mentoring for junior engineers working on build and release systems.

Requirements:

• Extensive experience with C++, C#, C#, VC++, MFC, COM/DICOM, ATL/STL, with a strong track record of software design and architecture.
• Expertise in COM and ActiveX technologies for low-level system integration.
• Proven experience designing and building real-time, multi-threaded event-driven systems.
