Career events

Meet us at one of our upcoming events

All the great minds of our time have one thing in common: They have to eat something now and then.

Unknown thinker

think-cell takes this need very seriously, which is why it came up with the EAT++ series of career events. We regularly invite computer science students to talk over a meal in a relaxed atmosphere. We also support conferences on C++, Artificial Intelligence and Computer Graphics and give technical talks or complete technical courses on topics our developers know by heart.

We decided to do this, because we are constantly on the lookout for new software developers. We are very interested in emerging talent and will be happy to stay in touch with you over the longer term. Even if you have no specific plans for your professional future, we would still like to get to know you. And we think we can do that best when meeting in a relaxed, informal atmosphere.

C++ Online 2025
February 25, 2025

We are excited to announce our ongoing support for C++Online, an online-only international C++ conference, which will run from February 25–28, 2025.

C++Online is designed to provide a more accessible option for those who may not be able to attend conferences in person. The event is organized by the team behind C++On Sea and supported by the technical team responsible for the online and hybrid versions of CppNow, CppCon, ACCU, The Audio Developer Conference, and many other established events.

This year, we will continue our video sponsorship of the event, staying true to our mission of making C++ conference talks accessible to everyone. In addition to sponsoring, we have an exciting program lined up for you — featuring not just one but two talks from think-cell!

Jonathan Müller, our Software Engineer and a frequent conference speaker, will deliver a keynote titled "Functional Programming in C++." This talk introduces functional programming in C++ using the modern standard library. Jonathan will cover algorithms with std::ranges, composable error handling with std::optional and std::expected, algebraic data types, and separating I/O from computation. Together with the audience, he will even cover the M-word in the end. The keynote is scheduled for Friday, February 28, 2025, from 16:30 to 17:30 UTC.

Later that day, the audience will hear "Classes C++23 Style," a talk by our Senior Software Engineer, Sebastian Theophil. He will cover the spaceship operator, conditionally explicit conversions, C++26 contracts, reference-qualified member functions, and deducing this. Starting from common use cases, the talk aims to demonstrate not just how to use these features but when to use them effectively. Sebastian will speak on Friday, February 28, 2025, from 18:00 to 19:00 UTC.

Join C++Online for four days of C++ content, including livestreamed C++ talks and workshops, group chats, networking and meetups through the interactive virtual venue, meet sponsors, recruiters, peers and experts in the field through video and text chat in Zoom, Discord and Gather Town. We are really looking forward to the conference!

ISO C++ Meeting in Hagenberg, Austria 2025
February 10, 2025

The first ISO C++ committee meeting of the year will be held in Hagenberg, Austria, during the week of February 10-15, 2025.

ISO C++ committee is a working group within the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) responsible for defining and evolving the C++ programming language through collaboration among experts from around the world.

Jonathan Müller, our Software Engineer and ISO C++ committee member, will be attending the meeting. He shares his expectations:

"The meeting will be the last meeting to approve new features for C++26. If a proposal is not forwarded to wording review there, it will have to wait until C++29. There is going to be an intense scramble to add profiles, relocation, and parallel algorithms, as well as merge fixes to SIMD and senders/receivers before it is too late to make breaking changes. I expect continued heated discussions about profiles, contracts, and reflections. I hope reflection will make it despite concerns about reflecting private members, but I think profiles and contracts are too controversial to have consensus.

Personally, I have written two papers improving std::ranges: One proposes a deprecation of const-qualified views begin/end to prevent a common pitfall of beginners, and one adds an infinite_range concept to help with some corner cases. They are the beginning of my plans to smooth out rough edges of std::ranges for the C++29 time frame."

We’re proud to be part of the standardization efforts and look forward to meeting in Hagenberg, Austria, soon.

C++ Meetup in Helsinki, Finland 2025
February 4, 2025

We are happy to kick off the 2025 event season with our C++ Meetup in Helsinki. On February 4th, think-cell will partner with the C++ Helsinki Community to host our first-ever meetup in Finland.

C++ Helsinki is part of a global network of C++ user groups for experts, professionals, and enthusiasts who enjoy discussing the state of C++, exploring its capabilities, and finding ways to improve it.

At the event, our Software Engineer Jonathan Müller will present his talk, “Overengineering max (a, b): Mixed comparison functions, common references, and Rust’s lifetime annotations”. Together with the audience, he will implement better mixed comparison functions, discuss common types and common references, wish for time machines to correct language semantics, and end up implementing Rust-style lifetime annotations using template metaprogramming and lots and lots of macros.

Julia and Anastasia from our tech recruiting team will also attend the meetup, ready to network with participants and promote the open C++ Developer role.

To attend, please register here. We are thrilled to meet the Helsinki community and look forward to our visit!
