  • A user-centric mindset focused on polished, intuitive, and accessible experiences.
  • Experience with automated UI testing, including unit, integration, or UI automation tests, is preferred.
  • Experience optimizing desktop app performance, including memory usage, startup time, rendering, high-DPI support, and responsiveness under load, is preferred.
  • Experience with localization, globalization, right-to-left UI support, and internationalization is preferred.
  • Familiarity with telemetry, analytics, crash reporting, logging, and error monitoring in desktop applications is preferred.
