We are open to candidates at different stages of their careers, from exceptional new graduates to experienced intermediate developers.

Whether you're beginning your software engineering career or already have several years of hands-on experience, we're looking for someone who demonstrates strong technical ability, excellent communication skills, curiosity, and a genuine interest in building high-quality software.

You'll work on meaningful enterprise digital transformation projects, collaborating with experienced developers, architects, and engineering teams across Canada and India.

The level of responsibility will reflect your experience, technical capabilities, and ability to contribute independently.

What You'll Do

• Design, develop, test, and maintain modern full-stack web applications.
• Build and integrate frontend interfaces, backend services, and APIs.
• Work with SQL and NoSQL databases to support scalable applications.
• Contribute to cloud-native development and deployment.
• Participate in code reviews, troubleshooting, testing, and performance improvements.
• Use AI-assisted development tools such as GitHub Copilot, Claude, or Cursor to support coding, testing, and documentation.
• Collaborate with developers, architects, and stakeholders across Canada and India.
• Participate in Agile ceremonies, including stand-ups, sprint planning, and reviews.
• Take increasing ownership of features and technical decisions as your experience grows.

What We're Looking For

We are considering candidates across three experience levels for this position.

• Experience building applications through academic projects, internships, co-op placements, or personal projects.

• No specific technology stack required, provided you demonstrate strong technical foundations.

Junior Developer (1–4 Years of Experience)

We're looking for developers with practical software development experience who are ready to expand their technical responsibilities.

• 1–4 years of relevant software development experience.
• Hands-on experience developing web applications.

• Exposure to cloud platforms such as Azure, AWS, or GCP is an asset.
• Experience with TypeScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, or NestJS is preferred but not mandatory.

Intermediate Developer (4–7 Years of Experience)

We're looking for experienced, hands-on developers who can independently deliver features and contribute to technical decisions.

• 4–7 years of relevant professional software development experience.
• Strong hands-on experience with TypeScript and JavaScript.
