Responsibilities

Own the design, architecture, and development of native Windows desktop applications leveraging Windows App SDK, WinUI, C#, XAML, and when needed, native C++.
Define and enforce Windows desktop development best practices across the codebase, covering architecture, performance, memory usage, responsive UI, cross-version compatibility (Windows 10 and 11+), and long-term maintainability.
Lead accessibility efforts by integrating and validating support for accessibility APIs, ensuring proper focus management, keyboard navigation, screen reader compatibility, and inclusive usability.
Collaborate with product designers, UX researchers, QA, and stakeholders to shape feature planning, UI/UX architecture, and the Windows platform roadmap.
Own the full lifecycle of features from conception through design, implementation, testing, release, and ongoing maintenance to ensure quality and reliability across releases.
Identify and diagnose complex bugs, performance bottlenecks, memory leaks, rendering issues, or compatibility problems, and propose robust architectural or design solutions.

Requirements

Minimum 3 years of Windows desktop application development using Windows App SDK, WinUI (or equivalent), C#, XAML; ideally with additional experience in native Windows code (C++, Win32/WinRT/COM).
Deep understanding of Windows app architecture, including interop between managed (.NET) and native code.
Proven track record delivering production-quality desktop applications with emphasis on reliability, performance, scalability, and maintainability.
Strong experience with Windows accessibility APIs (Microsoft UI Automation or similar) and a commitment to accessible software.
Solid software engineering fundamentals: object oriented programming, design patterns, data structures, algorithms, memory management, and concurrent or asynchronous programming as applicable.
Experience leading technical design, mentoring engineers, conducting code reviews, and making architecture-level decisions.
