Software Engineer

C++ and AI-Centric Engineering Focus

📍 Location: Hyderabad🏢 Work Arrangement: Hybrid – 3 days per week in the office

About the Role

We're looking for a hands-on Software Engineer with strong C++ fundamentals and a growing interest in applied AI for enterprise software modernization. In this role, you'll build secure, reliable backend services and contribute to AI-enabled capabilities that improve automation, developer productivity, and product intelligence across Hyland's enterprise platforms.

You'll work in a collaborative engineering team — writing production-quality C++ code, participating in design discussions, and using AI-assisted development responsibly. Python and Java or C# exposure is helpful for tooling, automation, and integration work, but the primary expectation is strong C++ engineering discipline and an interest in picking up C# skills.

Your Role Responsibilities? Here's What You'll Do.

• Design, develop, test, and maintain enterprise software components using modern C++, with focus on memory safety, performance, concurrency, reliability, and maintainability.
• Contribute to AI-assisted development practices using tools such as GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or Claude — while maintaining peer review, testing, security, and code-quality standards.
• Participate in technical design reviews, code reviews, and debugging sessions, applying strong object-oriented design, data structures, algorithms, and systems fundamentals.
• Troubleshoot moderate to complex production issues, analyze performance bottlenecks, and improve system reliability in cloud and containerized environments.
• Use secondary languages such as Python and Java or C# where needed for scripting, automation, integration utilities, or interoperability with existing enterprise systems.

Technology Tools

• Primary Language: Modern C++ (C17 or C20, STL, memory management, concurrency, performance profiling)
• Secondary Exposure: Java or C# (integration with existing enterprise services)
• AI Tools: GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude, LLM APIs & Prompt Engineering Basics
• REST APIs, SQL & NoSQL Databases
• Docker, Kubernetes Fundamentals, Git, Azure DevOps & GitHub
• AWS or Azure Cloud Services, CI/CD & Automated Testing Frameworks

Role Essentials

• 4–7 years of software engineering experience, with at least 3 years of hands-on development and a strong preference for production C++ experience.
• Strong understanding of modern C++ concepts — including object lifetimes, memory management, templates, concurrency, exception safety, debugging, and performance optimization.
• Experience building APIs, services, and distributed application components with secure coding practices, automated testing, and maintainable design patterns.
• Exposure to AI-assisted development or AI-enabled product features, including responsible use of code generation tools, basic prompt engineering, and validation of AI-generated code.

What We'd Like to See

• Exposure to LLM APIs, embeddings, RAG concepts, vector databases, or AI-powered search and automation use cases.
• Experience with Kafka, MongoDB, Elasticsearch, PostgreSQL, or similar technologies in distributed enterprise environments.
• Hands-on experience using GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude, or equivalent AI-assisted development tools with strong review discipline.
• Experience in Agile product development with a strong sense of ownership, collaboration, and a continuous improvement mindset.
