Deep knowledge of Win32, COM, Windows services, and system internals. Experience with device integration, low‑level input, audio/video, USB, or driver‑adjacent code. Experience debugging performance, memory, and concurrency issues in native codebases. Familiarity with remote desktop or virtualization technologies such as RDP, PCoIP, or ICA. Experience working close to the OS, including diagnostics with ETW, dumps, and debuggers.

Diagnose and fix issues spanning kernel / user‑mode boundaries, OS integration, drivers, services, and client applications.
