Description


At Shift, we’re reimagining the browser experience — and that means working at the heart of one of the largest and most complex open-source projects in the world: Chromium. As a Software Developer (C++) Co-op, you’ll join the team responsible for shaping the core browser experience, contributing directly to a codebase with more than 35 million lines of code.


This role is built for curious problem-solvers who are excited by technical challenges and eager to grow as developers. You’ll design and implement features, collaborate in technical discussions, troubleshoot complex issues, and contribute production-ready code alongside experienced engineers. Along the way, you’ll gain hands-on experience navigating large-scale systems, balancing performance and maintainability, and working within a highly collaborative development environment.


If you love digging into complex codebases, writing clean and thoughtful code, and building technology used every day, you’ll feel right at home at Shift.



What you'll be doing

This is what you need to know as a Software Developer (C++) Co-op: you’ll be responsible for:

  • Designing and implementing new features.
  • Collaborating in design discussions.
  • Diagnosing and resolving bugs.
  • Supporting cross-team collaboration, integration, and guidance.
  • Reviewing code written by teammates.
  • Testing changes to our software to ensure a high level of quality.

Halfway through your co-op:

  • You are comfortable making code changes that are merged into the product.
  • You know our product well and can answer common technical questions about it.
  • You can test most changes and be confident you’ve identified any problems.
  • You have autonomy to choose which tasks to work on next.

At the end of your co-op:

  • You are a fully contributing member of the development team.
  • You know our product inside and out and feel comfortable navigating the source code alongside your team.
  • You contribute to design discussions and help shape new initiatives.
  • You have taken ownership of a project/feature.
 



What we'd like to see in you

What we would like to see in you.

Every Shift team member has three things in common: We’re curious, hungry and good-humoured. We try our best to balance hard work with good, old-fashioned fun. As a Software Developer (C++) Co-op with Shift, there are extra superpowers we’re on the lookout for:

  • C++ experience through projects, work experience, or school courses.
  • Having taken several C++ technical electives at your school.
  • A solid understanding of object-oriented programming principles and design patterns.
  • Deeply independent and comfortable exploring large codebases.
  • Ability to take ownership of and problem-solve your way through complex tasks.
  • Passion for writing maintainable code.
  • A positive attitude and excellent communication skills.
  • Comfortable with version control systems and code review.
  • Samples demonstrating clean, well-commented, fully working code.

Bonus:

  • Demonstrated C++ skills through personal, open-source, or professional projects beyond coursework.
  • Real-world development experience in a non-academic setting.
  • Familiarity with web technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript/TypeScript.
  • Expertise using debugging tools (e.g. Visual Studio debugger, Chrome DevTools).
  • Experience working with very large codebases.
  • Experience working with Chromium or other open-source projects.
  • Enthusiasm in web browsing and browser technology.

Please note:  This is an 8-month co-op.
