C++ Software Engineer Porto

C++ Software Engineer
Porto
Porto, Porto District, Portugal

Our mission
is to make video editing professionals' daily lives working with their software easier. Our goal is to save them hours every week. We developed 5 paid and free plugins for Adobe After Effects / Premiere Pro, used by dozens of thousands of professionals and amateurs alike.

We specialize in Adobe, encoding, decoding codecs, but we're always on the lookout for new opportunities in other areas: other video editing software, visual effects, general workflows for other industries, etc.

Responsibilities

You know how to code in C or C++ or GPGPU or Java
Script, debug, troubleshoot issues, and can research topics on your own. You have an excellent memory and a great English writing level, and you can also speak oral English. You're ready to work for real, learn new tools, procedures, programming tips, and methods for organizing yourself and your work.

This is for you if
you have an analytical mind and you're focused on solving problems given constraints that are both told to you, but that you also gradually come to understand yourself by exploring the domain. You can read lots of text easily and follow instructions. You're
- conscious about how your mind worked in the past and can iterate new ideas to change how you work.

You live around Porto
to be able to come at least three days per week to the office. You will be able to work fully remotely for longer periods of time if everything goes correctly in our work together.

The company will train you
in the areas where you will need help or on the domains that interest you, but we expect you to learn everything we are teaching you fast, and move on to more interesting projects / tasks.

We do video editing software
in C / C++ / Java
Script on Windows and mac
OS. Our website is made with Java
Script, Type
Script, and the Deno runtime. Our code is not difficult per se, we don't use that many advanced features (or they are already coded and you can
- use them). It's the software development environment that is complicated, with lots of GUI to navigate, edge cases to take into account, OS / platforms differences, weird behaviors to study, black box software to interact with, such as Adobe software, undocumented requirements, and code to be cleaned without breaking legacy features. Nothing that a clear mind cannot navigate effectively, if taken seriously.
