Beschrijving
Stockholm/Sweden
In 2011, BlackBerry was excited to welcome JayCut to the tribe in Sweden. JayCut is based in Stockholm and currently looking for a highly creative and talented Senior C++ developer/tech lead.
In 2006 we disrupted desktop video editing by making it browser-based, easy and free. In 2013 we repeated this feat, now on mobile, with the acclaimed Story Maker product on BB10.
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
Now our Stockholm-based team is continuing the mission to create disruptive applications as a part of BlackBerry. Our current portfolio consists of two different BB10 video creation tools, and looking forward this will be expanded with new applications (that may not concern video/media). For this we're looking for a senior C++ application developer. In addition to being a developer you need to be perfectly comfortable with the tech lead role. You can be expected to take on certain leadership tasks and be a champion for a product, although you will not lead a team per se upon starting.
The team you will join consists of eight people who during childhood coded QBasic and won Lego championships when our friends were watching Fem myror ?r fler ?n fyra elefanter and Power Rangers. We live and breathe product development, and seek to lead rather than to follow. Can you lead, looking to both code quality, product innovation and execution? Apply and we'll see :)
RESPONSIBILITIES
You'll have full technical ownership of one or more of our applications, and a good deal of product ownership. Day-to-day work will revolve around actually building and supporting an application, primarily in C++ and QML. You'll interface with the developers in our team and in other offices, and have a bigger responsibility for syncing development efforts with them. It is expected that you can both make competent technical decisions and question existing ones.
SKILLS & QUALIFICATIONS
Technical excellence and extensive responsibility are the two key ingredients here. You likely have 10+ years experience of developing applications in C++ or similar. You've gotten (or even better, taken) a larger responsibility over a product, and been looking to the whole rather than just your component. You may have led a small team, or would feel comfortable exploring doing so.
But above all you want to create excellent products and have developed the skills to do so. Because there is no substitute for passion!
ADDITIONAL ASSETS
It's meriting to see experience in mobile development, Qt and media.
