C Developer

Job Summary:

We are seeking an experienced professional with strong proficiency in C programming and a background in Operations Research (OR) and/or optimization. The ideal candidate will design, implement, and optimize algorithms to solve complex business and engineering problems, leveraging advanced mathematical and computational techniques.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and maintain high-performance software solutions using C.
• Formulate and implement optimization models (linear, integer, mixed-integer, nonlinear, etc.) for real-world problems.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to gather requirements, understand domain challenges, and deliver robust solutions.
• Analyze, benchmark, and optimize existing algorithms for efficiency and scalability.
• Apply operations research techniques such as mathematical programming, heuristics, and metaheuristics to problem-solving.
• Document code, develop unit tests, and follow best practices in software development.

Required Skills & Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s/Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Operations Research, Applied Mathematics, or related field.
• Strong programming skills in C, including experience with data structures, algorithms, and memory management.
• Solid understanding of OR methodologies such as optimization modeling, simulation, and analytical problem-solving.
• Experience with optimization libraries/tools (e.g., CPLEX, Gurobi, COIN-OR) and/or developing custom solvers in C.
• Ability to translate complex problems into computational models and deliver efficient solutions.
• Proficiency in debugging, performance tuning, and code optimization.
• Strong analytical skills and attention to detail.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Preferred Skills:

• Experience with other programming languages (Python, C++, Java) for prototyping or integration.
• Knowledge of mathematical modeling languages (AMPL, GAMS) or familiarity with solver APIs.
• Experience in industries such as logistics, finance, energy, or telecommunications where OR is applied.
• Familiarity with parallel computing, multi-threading, or high-performance computing frameworks.
