General Wine Developer [Open-Source Programmer]

[Job Description]

CodeWeavers needs new, full-time developers to improve Wine's ability to run games and other types of software and integrate well with the native operating system and other system components. Positions are available to work on a variety of Wine-based software, including CodeWeavers's own CrossOver product; the Proton project for Valve software; and projects for other clients and software internal to CodeWeavers.

[Why it's interesting]

CodeWeavers prides itself on four tenets. Do challenging and meaningful work, work with people we respect, have fun at work and of course make money. CodeWeavers is filled with capable developers who believe in the technical and moral strengths of open source software. We thrive by working in an environment with competent co workers, little management hassle, and a sensible approach to work-life balance. We need developers with strong C skills who will enjoy the exciting and varied challenges Wine brings. Most Wine developers work on all areas of Wine, including file I/O, device input, audio/video, graphics, Windows shell and GUI programming, and much more. This requires self-motivation and an ability to learn quickly and work within existing code.

• Self-motivated to find work and learn new skills
