Hire C++ developers

These senior C++ developers build performance-critical software, from low-latency services to embedded and native applications, using AI tools and checking what those tools produce. Each one is tested on memory and object lifetimes, concurrency, undefined behaviour and profiling.

What changed about working in C++

01

Undefined behaviour reads as correct

Generated C++ often looks idiomatic and works in a debug build, then misbehaves with optimisations on because of a dangling reference or an out-of-bounds read. Engineers have to read for object lifetimes as well as logic.

02

Modern and legacy C++ sit side by side

Most real codebases mix C++20 with code written decades earlier, and models blend the two styles freely. Knowing which idiom fits the code around it is a senior skill.

03

Speed has to be measured

An agent can suggest an optimisation in seconds. A senior engineer checks it with a benchmark and sanitizers before it ships.

What we test for

How we assess C++ developers

Every engineer works through a fundamentals assessment with AI tools switched off and a second assessment with their own agents running. For C++ developers, these criteria carry the most weight.

AI output verification

Engineers review a generated change that compiles and passes its tests but carries a lifetime or ownership bug, and fix it before it merges.

Debugging

Engineers trace a crash or race that only appears in an optimised build, using sanitizers, a debugger or a profiler.

Judgement by risk and ownership

The engineer decides where a performance gain is worth the added complexity, and owns the call on what needs a second review.

Questions about hiring C++ developers

How senior are the C++ developers on Miyagami?

Every C++ developer we put forward has shipped and maintained production systems and has passed both assessments. You see their scorecards before you meet them.

How do you test C++ specifically?

Each developer works through two sixty-minute assessments in a real C++ codebase. The first covers memory, object lifetimes, concurrency and debugging with AI tools off. The second adds their own agents and tests whether they catch undefined behaviour and lifetime bugs in generated code.

How quickly can a C++ developer start?

You get a shortlist in five working days. From shortlist to first commit is typically three weeks, covering your interview, any technical conversation you want to run and contract setup. Engagements are full-time only, with a three-month minimum.

What does a C++ developer cost through Miyagami?

You pay a fixed monthly fee of €5,600 to €8,000 per full-time engineer, with employment, payroll and compliance included and no recruitment fee. The pricing page compares it with the all-in cost of a senior local hire in your country. Engagements are full-time with a three-month minimum, and if a placement doesn't work out, we replace them at our cost.

Do they work in our stack and tools or their own?

Once placed, engineers work in your repositories, your tooling and your sprints, and follow your rules for what AI tools may touch. In the second assessment they use their own agents, so you've already seen how they work with them.

Let's talk

Get a shortlist within five working days

You share the roles and the stack in a short form or a thirty-minute call. Within five working days you get named senior engineers to review, each with both scorecards.
