Position Overview

We’re hiring on behalf of a company in the seismic exploration space for a C++ Software Developer focused on Windows environments. This is a full-time, permanent role.

Their software gives technical teams the ability to test seismic survey designs, balance cost with subsurface image quality, and adapt to terrain and environmental constraints. You’ll work alongside domain experts to enhance tools that model trade-offs, streamline field planning, and support high-quality data acquisition.

What You’ll Do

• Develop and maintain high-performance Windows desktop applications using modern C++
• Build intuitive UI features that support geospatial workflows and large-scale data modeling
• Implement and optimize OpenGL-based visualizations of terrain, source lines, and survey coverage
• Collaborate with geoscientists and researchers to bring algorithms into production-ready code
• Review and refactor legacy code, contributing to long-term platform stability
• Write documentation and automated tests to support high software reliability
• Participate in design sessions, code reviews, and roadmap planning

Basic Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional experience in C++ software development
• Strong knowledge of OpenGL and performance-sensitive rendering
• Experience with modern C++ standards and good software design practices
• Comfortable working with technical subject matter experts outside of software
• Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field
• Clear communicator and self-starter who can manage ambiguity

Preferred Qualifications

• Hands-on experience with Qt for GUI development
• Familiarity with GIS, geophysical modeling, or spatial data visualization
• Background in scientific or engineering software

The Challenges

• Domain complexity: translating geophysical logic into intuitive, performant tools
• Balancing technical debt reduction with the need to deliver new features
• Working across disciplines with teammates who think in maps, not code
• Evolving mature products without disrupting trusted field workflows

Your Impact

• Help energy teams reduce acquisition costs while improving subsurface imaging results
• Advance software used to plan safer, faster, and more accurate seismic surveys
• Influence the future of a platform that supports both operational agility and scientific precision
• Bring modern engineering practices into a highly specialized technical environment
