Rust/C++ Software Engineer

You are expected to take ownership of problems end-to-end - from system design through implementation, debugging, and performance optimization.

• Design and develop a high-performance expression evaluation engine for post-processing simulation results, including parsing, AST design, execution planning, and numerical evaluation.
• Design and implement distributed simulation orchestration infrastructure in Rust, targeting HPC cluster environments
• Develop Python tooling and bindings for integration with scientific workflows, including data analysis and NumPy-based data processing.
• Contribute to the architecture and design of new subsystems, participating in code reviews and technical discussions
• Investigate and resolve performance bottlenecks and correctness issues independently
• Collaborate with engineers across multiple product teams in a global development environment.

• Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline - or equivalent practical experience3-6 years of professional software development experience in systems or performance-critical software.
• Strong proficiency in C++ or Rust (or both). Strong C++ experience with some Rust exposure and a willingness to learn quickly is acceptable; deep Rust experience is preferred
• Strong computer science fundamentals: including data structures, algorithms, concurrency, and systems-level thinking
• Experience designing clean abstractions and API design, including generics, trait-based interfaces, or analogous patterns in C++ (templates, virtual interfaces).
• Familiarity with numerical / scientific computing foundations: such as FFTs, complex arithmetic, matrix operations, and linear algebra
• Experience with Python, particularly with NumPy and array-oriented data processing
• Proficiency with Git and standard collaborative development workflows
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to work autonomously, * Experience with HPC, MPI, or parallel job scheduling across compute nodes; familiarity with networking fundamentals (TCP) and Rust networking libraries (e.g., Tokio, Hyper, Tonic)
• Interest in or exposure to compiler-adjacent work: expression parsing, AST construction, interpreters, or execution plan optimization
• Familiarity with circuit simulation, signal processing, or EDA tooling
• Experience writing Python native extensions for Rust or C++ (e.g., PyO3, pybind11)
• Familiarity with async runtimes (e.g., Tokio) or data-parallel frameworks (e.g., Rayon)
• Working knowledge of compilation and linking toolchains - ability to diagnose linker errors, and familiarity with build systems such as CMake or Conan
