Requirements and Qualifications

• Proficiency in at least one cross-platform desktop application framework, such as Electron, Tauri, WPF, Objective-C, or Qt, with hands-on development experience.
• Familiarity with common packaging and build tools (e.g., electron-builder, Electron Forge) and platform-specific mechanisms, including Windows installers and macOS Code Signing / Notarization.
• Solid understanding of desktop application architecture and lifecycle management.
• Practical experience developing and debugging applications on Windows and macOS.

Additional Skills

• Experience with application security, including encryption, secure storage hardening, sandboxing, and other security techniques.
