C++ Senior Software Engineer (Video Streaming)
Your new company
Hays has partnered with a prominent organisation delivering enterprise software solutions across the financial and insurance sectors. The business supports large-scale operations through intelligent systems that help safeguard people, assets, and communities. The team culture is built on flexibility, performance, and purpose-led innovation, offering meaningful work in a technically advanced environment.

Your new role
A contract opportunity is available for an experienced Senior Software Engineer to contribute to the redesign of an enterprise-grade Video Management System. The project focusses on enhancing backend capabilities that allow high-resolution, real-time video rendering across multiple monitors. The work involves performance tuning, redesigning legacy architecture, and integrating video feeds into a multi-stream display environment. This role sits within a digital studio focused on deep video processing rather than web-based interfaces. A coding challenge will be issued prior to the interview to assess technical strengths.

What you'll need to succeed
To be considered, you will demonstrate:
  • Senior experience developing Windows-based solutions in modern C++
  • Strong background in video processing or streaming pipelines
  • Proven capability in real-time system responsiveness and performance optimisation
  • Familiarity with NVIDIA video cards and APIs such as CUDA, FFmpeg, or Media Foundation
  • Experience with scalable architecture, COM programming, and testable software design
  • Problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and comfort working with legacy systems
Expertise in profiling high-performance systems and designing visual solutions for security or surveillance platforms will be viewed favourably.

What you'll get in return
This contract offers the opportunity to contribute to a major infrastructure upgrade in support of real-world risk management and insurance services. The work is technically engaging and impacts how customer environments are monitored, protected, and analysed.
