- Contribute to our efforts to use `clangd` as the LSP-provider of our IDE, Eclipse.

- Implement and run automated transformations to free our code from legacy cruft.

- Provide first-level support to our developers facing issues with the build system.

The skills you will demonstrate:

  - Knowledge of the C++ build process (compiling, linking, build systems).
- Preferred:

  - Knowledge of the LLVM/Clang ecosystem, particularly libAST and clang-tidy internals

  - Development or maintenance of a SCons-, CMake- or Bazel-based build system.
