  • Serving as the technical leader for GFI's engineering team, making critical decisions on software implementation
  • Coaching the C++ software engineers on both hard and soft skills, fostering professional growth and team cohesion

What you will NOT be doing

  • Micro-managing - at GFI, you won't be bogged down with micromanaging but will instead focus on strategic leadership

  • Focusing on larger enterprises - we are dedicated to providing software solutions for small and medium-sized businesses

Candidate requirements

  • 5+ years of professional experience in C++ development
  • 2+ years of experience in either the network communications or security domain
