Description

  • Lead the design, architecture, and development of native Windows desktop applications using Windows App SDK, WinUI, C#, XAML, and C++ when needed.
  • Define and enforce best practices for Windows desktop development across code architecture, performance, memory usage, UI responsiveness, compatibility, and maintainability.
  • Drive accessibility efforts by integrating and validating Windows accessibility APIs and ensuring keyboard, focus, and screen-reader support.
  • Collaborate with product designers, UX researchers, QA, and other stakeholders on feature planning, UI/UX architecture, and the Windows roadmap.
  • Own the full feature lifecycle from conception through design, implementation, testing, release, and maintenance.
  • Identify and resolve complex bugs, performance bottlenecks, memory leaks, rendering issues, and compatibility problems.
  • Lead technical design discussions, mentor other engineers, conduct code reviews, and contribute to architecture-level decisions.

Requirements

  • 3+ years of experience in Windows desktop application development using Windows App SDK, WinUI or similar, C#, and XAML.
  • Experience with native Windows development technologies such as C++, Win32, WinRT, or COM is strongly preferred.
  • Deep understanding of Windows application architecture, including interoperability between managed .NET code and native code.
  • Proven track record of designing, building, and shipping production-quality desktop applications with a focus on reliability, performance, scalability, and maintainability.
  • Strong experience with Windows accessibility APIs such as Microsoft UI Automation, and a commitment to accessible, inclusive software.
  • Strong software engineering fundamentals, including OOP, design patterns, data structures, algorithms, memory management, and multithreading or asynchronous programming.
  • Experience leading technical design, mentoring engineers, conducting code reviews, and making architecture-level decisions.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to explain tradeoffs, collaborate cross-functionally, and drive consensus.
  • A user-centric mindset focused on polished, intuitive, and accessible experiences.
  • Experience with UI automation testing, performance optimization, localization/globalization, telemetry, CI/CD workflows, or long-term ownership of feature areas is a plus.

Benefits

  • High-impact role with direct influence over the Windows product used by millions of users.
  • Collaborative, flat-structure engineering culture where you help make technical decisions.
  • Opportunities to lead, mentor others, and grow into broader technical leadership roles.
  • Flexibility, autonomy, and responsibility to solve problems and own features end to end.
  • Purpose-driven mission focused on reliable, accessible, user-centered software.
