Senior C++ Developer (Cloud Gaming Platform)

UAPP.AI creates AI-powered mobile and digital products used by over 10 million people across 150+ countries. We build and scale our own products from scratch, meaning every technical decision directly impacts our users and the business. We value autonomy, speed, and a results-oriented mindset with zero corporate bureaucracy.

We are currently launching a brand-new direction — a Cloud Gaming platform that allows users to stream games from virtual Windows machines with ultra-low latency. We are looking for a strong Senior C++ Developer to build the technological foundation of this product from the ground up.
 

💻 Role Overview

You will focus on the low-level part of the platform: optimizing streaming quality, modifying open-source solutions, and developing custom tools to ensure minimal data transfer latency. This is a perfect match for an engineer who thrives on complex technical challenges and is ready to make key architectural decisions.

🛠 What You Will Do

• Develop custom tools for game streaming from virtual Windows machines.
• Identify and eliminate bottlenecks affecting platform latency and performance.
• Enhance existing open-source solutions and build custom modules on top of them.
• Participate in developing our proprietary browser-based streaming solutions.
• Work closely with the networking stack, optimizing data transfer via TCP/UDP.
• Design technical solutions independently and contribute to the product's architecture.

🎓 Requirements
 

Must-Have:

• 4+ years of commercial C++ development experience (solid knowledge of C++17/20).
• Proven track record in multithreaded development within production environments.
• Deep understanding of memory management and application performance optimization.
• Hands-on experience with TCP/UDP and a strong grasp of networking principles.
• Commercial development experience under Linux and/or Windows.
• Ability to break down complex tasks independently and drive technical solutions to production.
   

Nice-to-Have:

• Experience with streaming platforms, Cloud Gaming, real-time, or low-latency systems.
• Familiarity with WebRTC, FFmpeg, or GStreamer.
• Experience in integrating and customizing open-source solutions.

🎁 What We Offer

• Impact: The opportunity to join a Cloud Gaming platform at an early stage and shape its core architecture.
• Challenges: True engineering tasks where performance and optimization genuinely matter.
• Autonomy: High level of trust — we expect initiative and empower you to make decisions.
• Environment: A fast-paced, result-oriented team with a quick decision-making cycle.
• Flexibility: 100% remote work format.
• Compensation: $3,000 – $4,500 (depending on your experience and tech expertise).
