Job description

the company is booming, so we're looking for an Intermediate Full Stack Developer on contract (until Dec 24, 2026) to join our team!

This is a hybrid role requiring two days per week in our Toronto office.

Who we are

the company is a Toronto-based agency that lives at the intersection of data, technology, and creativity to provide clients with high-performing campaigns and digital products that shape connected customer experiences. We've helped our clients implement fully integrated CRM customer journeys, built robust digital experiences, and created national loyalty programs with decades of experience in sectors of automotive, financial, telco and retail.

We are creative realists, which means our ideas and solutions are grounded in the realities of our clients' business. We believe big ideas are nothing without big results (and flawless execution); high-performing agencies deliver high-performing campaigns, products, and experiences; and the best solutions happen when we collaborate with clients as partners.

Our Technology department is a 50+ person distributed team of Developers, QA, and Architects delivering amazing digital products on a leading-edge technology stack.

This is an active role with immediate impact and a clear place on the team.

Who we're looking for

You use modern tools and frameworks (REACT and Node.js) and can code up an application from scratch and spin up a cloud infrastructure to host it. You have a clear understanding of security and build it into any of your services. Although you have the full support of your teammates, you are able to participate in the research and solution of complex problems. At the same time, you know when to ask for help and don't let pride or ego get in the way, because after all, you are part of a team.

• Understanding the entire web development process: Having a holistic view of how the front-end and back-end work together.
• Troubleshooting and debugging issues: Being able to identify and fix problems that may arise in any part of the application.
• Working with different technologies: Being proficient in a variety of programming languages, frameworks, and tools.
• Communicating with Stakeholders: Reporting on progress to agile pod teammates, and clients.
