Alvéole leverages bees on over 2,200 commercial buildings to help companies increase tenant satisfaction and engagement, earn green building credits, and monitor real estate’s impact on nature and biodiversity. At Alvéole, we believe in doing work that makes an impact - no matter what position you hold in the organization. We are a passionate workforce of 115+ individuals, working across 50+ cities in Canada, the United-States and Europe. We believe that commercial real estate is uniquely positioned to make a positive impact on biodiversity and it’s our mission to unlock that potential.

About the product

Alvéole’s Nature-Related Risk Platform helps commercial real estate stakeholders assess and manage nature-related risks linked to biodiversity loss and ecosystem health. The platform evaluates risks across operations, capital markets, insurance, and regulatory areas, providing insights into ecosystem health, land impacts, resource use, and pollution. It aligns with TNFD standards, enabling users to benchmark, prioritize, and monitor risks, disclose findings to investors, and improve sustainability strategies to future-proof their portfolios.

About the role

As a Senior Full-Stack Engineer at Alvéole, you’ll be at the forefront of building our Nature-Related Risk Platform product and driving technical decisions. This role demands hands-on development, problem-solving, and collaboration across the stack, from intuitive user interfaces to scalable back-end services and geospatial features. You’ll collaborate closely with product managers, designers, and other engineers to deliver a product that delights our users. We value engineers who take ownership, bring innovative ideas to the table, and thrive in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain scalable full-stack features for the Nature-Related Risk Platform.
• Drive technical decisions related to architecture, performance optimization, and scalability.
• Contribute to infrastructure setup, deployment processes, testing and monitoring.
• Participate in and lead design and code reviews to ensure quality, performance, and maintainability.
• Collaborate closely with product managers, designers, and other engineers to translate business requirements into technical solutions.
• Lead proof-of-concept and prototyping efforts to validate new ideas and approaches.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to deeply understand user needs, translating them into innovative features that deliver real value.

Experiences and skills required

Requirements

• Expertise with Node.js for server-side application development, including designing and implementing APIs and integrating with various services and databases.
• Proficiency with declarative UI libraries like React, including state management, component-based architecture, and modern front-end development workflows.
• Hands-on experience with relational databases, particularly PostgreSQL, including schema design, query optimization, and troubleshooting performance bottlenecks. Experience with advanced database features, such as geospatial extensions (e.g., PostGIS), is a strong plus.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment, balancing competing priorities. You should be adaptable and comfortable with ambiguity in experimental and iterative development processes.

Nice-to-haves

• Experience with Python, particularly in areas like data processing, scripting, or geospatial analysis.
• Knowledge of geospatial technologies, including working with geospatial data formats, geospatial databases like PostGIS, or visualization tools such as PostGIS or QGIS.

• Experience with machine learning, including developing or implementing models to analyze complex datasets or predict outcomes.
• Familiarity with financial modeling, such as assessing risk factors, forecasting, or analyzing the economic impact of various scenarios.
• Experience working with advanced data pipelines, including ETL processes, real-time data streams, or distributed data systems.
• Interest in nature and biodiversity, with a passion for sustainability and a desire to contribute to technology that supports environmental stewardship and risk mitigation.
• Generous and flexible PTO policy (minimum of 4 weeks per year)
