We’re running an Online Hiring Event this Saturday, to hire C++ Software Engineers ($30k/yr)

Online Hiring Events are live forums designed to enable you to understand the role and requirements through an interactive Q&A session followed by a self-directed testing process. The testing takes between 3-5 hours to complete. It’s worth taking the time to finish all the tests because we evaluate every single complete application to find the top talent.

This event will include all testing required to apply for the role. Upon grading the tests, and if you advance, we will set up an interview with the hiring manager.

As a C++ software engineer, you can expect to be a member of one of our central assembly line teams such as a maintenance or unit test team.

Our maintenance team is responsible for bug fixing across our 100+ product portfolio. The maintenance team has an element of product specialization but they are also process specialists. We want to ensure that our engineers have all the right information and toolsets available to be able to quickly reproduce a client’s environment, reproduce a bug, fix it, test it, document the fix and send for review. We have weekly product release cycles so we want to ensure that bugs get fixed as quickly as possible for our clients and that we are constantly improving the quality of our products.

Our organization is constantly acquiring new companies and their products. As a result, our unit test team is responsible to increase unit test code coverage for all newly acquired products. Engineers within this team are expected to have great experience in writing unit tests and will also have daily and weekly targets to work against. The engineer’s role is to increase the unit test coverage and work according to the team’s standards and quality guidelines. We measure the quality of work through our First Time Acceptance rate, meaning that the Product Chief Architects accept the work delivered by the engineers immediately and without having to ask for a rework.

In all cases, you will have aggressive daily and weekly targets to work against and you can expect to receive daily and weekly feedback about your performance. The regular feedback is used to help you improve immediately and to help you resolve blockers which may be slowing down your performance.

  Bootcamp Program

  To apply for a role at Crossover, you will go through a series of online tests, usually during the online hiring event. If you pass these tests, you will be offered the opportunity to participate in our four-full-time week Bootcamp training program. This is elite training taught by our top instructors.

  Here’s what our graduates have to say about Bootcamp:

  “I am very pleased to say that because of Crossover’s unorthodox and unique way of transferring the knowledge through (Paired sessions, coaching sessions with CSMs), I have never been more confident in my technical skills and abilities for my role.”
  

• Mikael F

“The CTO Bootcamp was another thing that motivated me. I wanted to see how CTOs across the globe work and learn from them.”

• Javed Z

“I’ve been with the company since Aug (been part of the second Bootcamp) and since then I’ve learned SQL, databases, servers, tapes, other content management systems etc- and that’s only been in 3 months. Usually when I’m in a new company, I learned a lot about their platform, their tools etc during the length of my time with them but never at this speed!”

• Monnaliza T

It is offered as soon as you want to get started. You will be compensated for 40 hrs/ week at the hourly rate for the role you are applying to. Bootcamp training is an excellent opportunity to learn about our culture, expectations, tools, processes, and procedures. It’s an intensive and demanding program, but every graduate is guaranteed a job at the end of it.
