原生/桌面工程师
Native / Desktop Engineer
Native / Desktop Engineer
职位描述。构建 Desktop Intercept —— 用于 Windows 的原生驱动程序和应用程序，作为虚拟麦克风/扬声器使用，实时替换音频，并（第一阶段 C 阶段）读取 DOM 并驱动计算机使用。这是平台上最难的工程，也是最深的护城河。你所构建的一切都将为一个高效、事件驱动、低延迟的分布式平台提供支持——语音、桌面、智能和 AI 结合在一起，因此你需要从延迟预算、吞吐量和效率的角度思考，而不仅仅是功能。初创环境：1 周冲刺周期，周五演示，快速失败并继续前进。
你将负责的内容。Windows 原生驱动程序（WASAPI、虚拟音频设备、内核相邻钩子）· 实时双向音频路由 · 用户空间应用（音频路由器、DOM 抓取器、MCP 服务器）· 桌面到云端路径（NATS 类、WebSocket）在 300ms 以内预算下运行 · 音频和视频共存及大规模部署 · 你承诺的时间表。
你是谁。自我驱动者、黑客、有毅力。你在系统层面非常出色，并能证明这一点。你热爱新技术，能在技术变化时快速适应，用可运行的代码展示想法，并每天使用 AI 工具提升你的效率。团队合作者，能够制定并完成承诺的时间表。喜欢解决别人无法解决的问题——并取得胜利。
要求
· 8 年以上系统/原生开发经验；在真实规模下（>10k 个座位）交付过 Windows 桌面代理，包含音频功能。
· 强大的 C/C++ —— 必须。服务端强大的 Go —— 必须。
· 熟悉构建和与驱动程序交互 —— 虚拟音频设备、虚拟麦克风/扬声器、WASAPI/Core Audio、内核相邻钩子。
· 在 300ms 以内预算下的实时音频管道 —— 缓冲、重采样、漂移、无故障捕获/播放。
· 理解端到端的高效系统 —— 事件驱动架构、发布/订阅、WebSocket 流媒体，以及在原生层中状态、竞态条件和锁的含义（无锁音频缓冲区、实时线程、优先级反转）。
· macOS/Linux 原生经验是巨大加分项 —— 跨平台桌面是下一步方向。
· 浏览器/DOM 内部结构和进程注入是强加分项（C 阶段）。
· 企业级大规模部署技能 —— MSI 安装程序工程、静默部署、跨 10k+ 受限座位的集群升级。
· 驱动程序/代码签名和防病毒/终端检测与响应（AV/EDR）共存 —— WHQL、EV 证书，且在 CrowdStrike 类代理中保持隐形而不触发它们。
· 崩溃转储和遥测规范 —— Windows

Native / Desktop Engineer
The role. Build Desktop Intercept — the native Windows driver and app that acts as a virtual mic/speaker, replaces audio in real time, and (Phase 1 Phase C) reads the DOM and drives Computer Use. This is the hardest engineering on the platform and the deepest moat. Everything you build feeds a high-efficiency, event-driven, low-latency distributed platform — voice, desktop, intelligence, and AI combined — so you think in latency budgets, throughput, and efficiency, not just features. Startup environment: 1-week sprints, Friday demos, fail fast and move forward.
What you'll own. Windows native driver (WASAPI, virtual audio devices, kernel-adjacent hooks) · real-time bidirectional audio routing · the user-space app (audio router, DOM scraper, MCP server) · the desktop-to-cloud path onto the event bus (NATS-class, WebSocket) under a sub-300ms budget · AV co-existence and mass-deployment · your committed timelines.
Who you are. Self-starter, hacker, grit. You consider yourself exceptional at the systems level and can show it. You love new technology, adapt fast when it changes, demonstrate ideas with working code, and use AI tools daily to multiply your velocity. Team player who makes and hits committed timelines. Loves solving the problems nobody else can — and winning.
Requirements
· 8+ years systems / native development; shipped a Windows desktop agent at real scale (>10k seats) with audio.
· Strong C/C++ — mandatory. Strong Go for the service side — mandatory.
· Comfortable building and interacting with drivers — virtual audio devices, virtual microphones/speakers, WASAPI / Core Audio, kernel-adjacent hooks.
· Real-time audio pipelines under a sub-300ms budget — buffering, resampling, drift, glitch-free capture/playback.
· Understands high-efficiency systems end-to-end — event-driven architecture, pub/sub, WebSocket streaming, and what state, race conditions, and locking mean at the native layer (lock-free audio buffers, real-time threads, priority inversion).
· macOS / Linux native experience is a huge +++++ — cross-platform desktop is where this goes next.
· Browser / DOM internals and process injection a strong plus (Phase C).
· Enterprise mass-deployment craft — MSI/installer engineering, silent deploys, fleet upgrades across 10k+ locked-down seats.
· Driver/code signing and AV/EDR co-existence — WHQL, EV certs, and staying invisible to CrowdStrike-class agents without tripping them.
· Crash-dump and telemetry discipline — WinDbg/minidumps, symbolized crash reporting from the field; you debug machines you'll never touch.
· Security posture — least-privilege service design; this app hears customer audio and reads screens, so it must be provably tight.
· A master debugger at the systems level — kernel logs, crash dumps, audio glitches, AV interference; you see it.
· SIP / RTP a strong plus. Mid-tier or better hands-on AI-in-product experience a plus (the desktop app hosts an MCP server and drives Computer Use).
