Calibre Senior Software Engineer (C++)

Are you passionate about C++ and eager to tackle complex algorithms and data structures? Do you thrive in a challenging environment where you can work with a large, mature codebase and make meaningful contributions to real-world products? If so, we want to hear from you!

About the Role: We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join our team and contribute to the ongoing maintenance and enhancement of our large, complex Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tool. Our team focuses on physical verification, a critical phase in the semiconductor design process, which involves advanced computational geometry, complex data structures, and high-performance core infrastructure development. You will work on tasks such as memory management, concurrency support, and application-specific data storage systems that are essential to the performance and scalability of our tool.

What You'll Do:

• Maintain and enhance a large, existing C++ codebase that includes both modern and legacy C++ code.
• Work on computational geometry algorithms used for physical verification in chip design.
• Design, develop, and execute comprehensive test plans to ensure product stability and performance.
• Implement and optimize data structures and algorithms to improve product efficiency.
• Contribute to the core infrastructure, including memory management, concurrency support, and custom data storage systems.
• Collaborate with senior engineers and product teams to identify areas for improvement and deliver high-quality solutions.
• Troubleshoot and resolve issues within the software to improve reliability and user experience.

What We're Looking For:

• Strong proficiency in C++: You should have a solid understanding of both legacy C++ and modern C++ (C++11 and beyond).
• Aptitude for algorithms and data structures: You enjoy solving complex problems and can implement efficient solutions.
• Interest in computational geometry and physical verification: Prior experience or a strong willingness to learn is essential.
• Attention to detail in testing: You understand the importance of thorough testing and are willing to invest the time to get it right.
• Ability to work with legacy code: You're not intimidated by large, existing codebases that include older C++ constructs and understand the importance of maintaining and improving them.
• Collaborative mindset: You work well with others, are open to feedback, and thrive in a team-oriented environment.
