Senior Performance Engineer (C++ Core Engine)

Quick Facts

• Role: Senior Performance Engineer (C++ Core Engine)

• Focus: Optimize the core C++ engine for aviation software

Description

You will work hands-on with the core C++ engine, analyzing and improving performance across a large and complex codebase. The work includes understanding engine interactions and identifying opportunities to improve efficiency, responsiveness, and resource utilization. You will profile, analyze, and optimize performance while identifying bottlenecks in CPU/GPU utilization, memory, and multithreading.

Responsibilities

• Profile, analyze, and optimize performance within the core C++ engine

• Identify and resolve performance bottlenecks (CPU/GPU utilization, memory, multithreading)

• Work with performance-critical engine components, including rendering and graphics infrastructure

• Collaborate with other engineers to improve engine architecture, profiling, and product performance

Requirements

• Strong experience with C++ and core engine or low-level systems development

• Hands-on experience profiling, debugging, and optimizing complex real-time systems

• Strong understanding of multithreading, memory management, CPU/GPU performance, and engine architecture

• Experience in game engines, AAA game development, rendering, simulation, or similar performance-critical environments

• Valuable experience with graphics APIs (Metal, Vulkan, DirectX, or OpenGL)

Benefits

• Remote opportunities available
