Senior Software Engineer (C++)

TheRole: Senior Software Engineer (C++) 

The Team: R&D team develops an intelligent platform as part of Global Engineering Solutions – a scalable cognitive engine that help end users – engineers, innovators, and researchers – to discover and leverage valuable insights and knowledge locked in unstructured and semi-structured content of corporate repositories and industry sources. The task includes developing intelligent mechanisms for extraction, decomposition, analysis, and retrieval of relevant engineering data, with leveraging state-of-the-art Machine Learning and Deep Learning models that work in a scalable and optimized cloud system.

The Impact: This role is critical for enhancing (developing new features) and maintaining of an existing in-house developed solution for decomposition of unstructured data (PDF, MS Office formats, etc.) including format parsing, application of OCR, and intelligent processing with ML models. This solution is a core component of data processing pipelines across multiple products of our organization. 

What’s in it for you:  

1. Exciting tasks and the team with own product development in the space of data-driven algorithms and Machine Learning based solutions 

2. Personal growth and career development supported on corporate level 

3. Continuous education with subject domain guilds, invited tutors and paid programs and conferences 

Responsibilities: 

• Developing new features and maintaining of a core component of data processing pipelines for parsing and intelligent analysis of unstructured content (PDF, MS Office formats, etc.) 
• Keeping responsibility and continuous improvements of a release cycle, including MLOps aspects, third party dependencies and sharing the updates with other development teams 
• Optimization of data processing performance, including development of performance metrics and tools  
• Collaborating with engineering and development teams to evaluate and identify points of improvements of functionality, quality and API of the processing solution 

What We’re Looking For:  

• 4+ years experience as software engineer on projects related to unstructured data processing (preferably – PDF and/or MS Office formats) 
• Strong algorithmic and coding skills 
• Deep experience with C++  
• Experience with .NET/C# and/or Python is welcome 
• Skills and passion for right design and engineering practices 
• Analytical and problem-solving skills 
• Communication and collaboration skills 

Must have:

• Experience in development of backend systems in C++ for processing of PDF documents: extraction of text, images, tables, applying OCR, merging, splitting, or other. 
• Strong skills with C++ templates. 
• Strong skills with build automation systems such as CMake.
