At Solink, our mission is to safeguard what matters most. We provide businesses with the tools to know sooner and act faster by transforming video security into real-time operational insights.

Our cloud-based platform integrates seamlessly with your existing cameras and systems, turning them into intelligent sensors that detect and interpret key moments. This empowers teams to make data-driven decisions, enhance security, and improve operational efficiency.

Trusted by over 30,000 locations across 32+ countries - including brands like McDonald’s and JYSK - Solink delivers clarity when it counts. Our solutions help businesses reduce shrink, optimize performance, and respond proactively to potential threats.

We're growing rapidly, earning industry recognition, and scaling with purpose. We’ve been recognized by Deloitte’s Fast 50 and Fast 500, Business Intelligence Group, and as one of Ottawa’s Best Places to Work. And we’re just getting started!

The Role

The Core Apps team supports over 30,000 customers and 400,000+ actively recording cameras by powering the core features of the Solink Cloud platform. We focus on performance, scalability, and building a solid foundation for the rest of the product and engineering teams.

We’re looking for a passionate Intermediate Full Stack Developer to join our Core Apps team. You’ll work across our cloud application stack to deliver customer-facing features that scale with our growing global user base. You’ll collaborate with product managers, designers, QA, and other engineers to turn ideas into polished, reliable solutions.

What You’ll Do

• Build Core Product Features: Design, develop, and deliver key features that power the Solink platform—used daily by 30,000+ customers worldwide.
• Own Full Stack Development: Work across the stack using React, Node.js, and Serverless technologies. Tackle backend and frontend challenges with scalability, performance, and customer value in mind.
• Collaborate Across Disciplines: Partner closely with product managers, designers, QA, and fellow developers to turn ideas into polished, high-impact solutions.
• Contribute to Cloud Infrastructure: Work with modern AWS architecture—Lambda, DynamoDB, Kinesis, and more—to scale our systems and ensure real-time reliability.
• Continuously Improve: Join periodic design and planning sessions, helping break down work, estimate complexity, and shape technical direction.
• Research & Experiment: Stay curious. Investigate new tools and patterns, prototype ideas, and help level up our codebase and team practices.
• Deliver with Accountability: Take ownership of tasks in Jira, work independently while staying connected with the team, and always be pushing projects forward.
  
  

What You Bring

Must-Have:

• Technically Strong: You bring 3–5 years of professional software development experience, supported by a degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
• Cloud Fluent: You have hands-on experience with AWS and serverless infrastructure, and you’re comfortable navigating services like Lambda, DynamoDB, SQS, and Kinesis.
• Full Stack Ready: You’re confident with JavaScript/TypeScript and have experience building cloud-based applications end to end. React experience is a bonus.
• Collaborative by Nature: You thrive in team environments, contribute in design sessions, and aren’t afraid to share ideas, ask questions, or offer help.
• Adaptable and Curious: You enjoy learning, experimenting, and taking on unfamiliar challenges. You’re comfortable balancing new work with supporting existing systems.
• Organized and Proactive: You can manage your tasks in Jira, take initiative on projects, and follow through to execution—communicating clearly as you go.
  
  

Nice-to-Have:

• Experience with DevOps or Infrastructure as Code (e.g., CDK, Terraform).
• Familiarity with Snowflake or similar data warehousing platforms.
• Exposure to SQL/NoSQL (especially Elasticsearch or DynamoDB).
• Understanding of cybersecurity best practices.
• Proficiency in multiple languages.
