C/C++ Developer

Project description

A collection of server management utilities that enable customers to manage Lenovo ThinkSystem and ThinkServer servers more efficiently and cost-effectively. The LXCE offering consists of OneCLI, UpdateXpress, and Bootable Media Creator.

Responsibilities

Design, build and maintain core C++ modules, following our modular, dynamically loaded architecture

Own feature areas end to end: translate specs into designs, implement, write unit/functional tests, and partner with QA to land production grade code on Windows and Linux build targets.

Enable new platforms and features across the roadmap

Integrate with low level services

Optimize performance and reliability: profile critical paths, reduce startup/scan times, improve logging and error handling, and harden cross platform behavior

Contribute to release quality: fix integration issues, address bottlenecks, and support automated pipelines

Maintain code quality: perform code reviews, enforce coding guidelines, and improve test coverage and CI reliability across modules and platforms

Collaborate across teams to clarify requirements, triage issues, and land changes that align with LXCE deliverables
