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
