C Software Developer

Brunel has partnered with a major Australian resources operator on an opportunity for a C Software Developer to join an established engineering team building high-performance components for optimisation, simulation, and real-time decisioning. This role suits a developer with strong modern C experience, multithreading capability, and exposure to GPU-accelerated and multi-language production environments.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement high-performance components in C.
• Implement algorithms used in optimisation, simulation, and decision systems.
• Ensure efficient use of CPU, memory, and concurrency in performance-critical code.
• Integrate C components into distributed microservices architectures.
• Collaborate with data scientists to operationalise advanced algorithms.
• Contribute to backend services written in other languages where required.
• Participate in code reviews and maintain high engineering standards.
• Support debugging, performance analysis, and optimisation of production systems.

Qualifications

• 4-7 years developing production software systems.
• Strong experience in modern C development.
• Experience building performance-sensitive or computationally intensive systems.
• Experience with multithreading, concurrency, and performance optimisation.
• Experience with distributed or backend systems (advantageous).
• Experience with GPU LibTorch in multiplatform applications.
• Strong Linux development environment experience.
• Understanding of algorithmic complexity and computational trade-offs.
• Familiarity with containerised environments (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Experience working in multi-language codebases (e.g., Python, C#, Rust, or similar).
• Experience with version control and CI/CD workflows.
