Along with thousands of volunteer contributors and collaborators all over the world, Mozillians design, build and distribute open-source software that enables people to enjoy the internet on their terms.About this team and role: The OS integration team is a cross-disciplinary team in charge of improving and maintaining Firefox on its various supported operating systems. We make sure it is a first-class citizen that integrates well with the desktop and supports new features offered by the operating system. Firefox is a sophisticated cross-platform application, and we deal with the operating system specifics. We work on things like crash reporting, interactions with third party software, sandboxing and hardening techniques, and investigate crashes. We develop close to the machine on low-level topics such as browser performance, security, Inter Process Communication (IPC), memory allocators, and power usage.What is a Staff Software Engineer at Mozilla?
