The Role

You are an experienced software developer, who has worked as part of small to medium-sized teams and participated in planning, designing, and shipping small-to-medium scale applications.

You are a team player and contributor to technology decisions and architecture and can balance day-to-day workload, with an eye for future improvements of your team and their work.

You will be working as part of a group of developers, product managers, and designers who help each other solve problems across all functions. You will employ best practices in development, security, accessibility, and design to achieve the highest quality of service for our customers.

We use a range of technologies to get the job done: JavaScript and Node.js coupled with OpenAPI, React, Next.js, storybook and other libraries to provide a modern, easy-to-use Javascript toolchain. A RESTful API back-end powers our platform services.

Day to day

• Reporting directly to the Engineering Manager, work together on and own your personal growth and objectives
• Work with Product Managers, Product Designs and other Software Engineers to define and execute the product roadmap
• Write production-ready code that is performance optimized, easily testable and understood by other developers, and accounts for edge cases and errors
• Commit to 2-week time-boxed sprints with daily standups
• Communicate with the team through our productivity tools (Slack, Jira, GitHub, etc.)
• Practice test-driven development
• Contribute to the design of scalable software platforms with performance and security in mind
• Analyze and troubleshoot production issues in a timely fashion
• Identify opportunities to mentor and grow the skills of other engineers
• Own technical design documents and architecture diagrams

Minimum qualifications

• Minimum of 7 years of experience in a software engineering role
• Proven history of excelling in a team-based, collaborative environment
• Proven experience designing and documenting APIs (we use Node.js, Fastify, OpenAPI Spec)
• Proficient in front-end development, including JavaScript, React, and CSS
• Knowledge of client-side tooling such as Webpack, Storybook and testing libraries
• Skilled in development of React and Redux
• Strong understanding of back-end development with Node.js
• Extensive experience with database engines, including PostgreSQL and Redis
• Experience with the Docker ecosystem
• Experience reviewing code and giving constructive feedback to peers
• Eligible for Full-Time employment in Canada

Nice to have

• Experience in building scalable production services and monitoring performance (we use GCP Monitoring Tools)
• Experience breaking monolithic services into microservices
• Experience designing and load-testing highly available systems
• Experience with Ruby on Rails (our legacy application)

• We have all the fun perks you’d expect—flexible vacation policy, competitive vision, dental and health benefits, team offsites and working hubs, and socials (yes, even remotely!)

$150,000 - $180,000 semi monthly

The pay range listed reflects base salary only. In addition to base pay, we offer additional forms of compensation for all roles, which may include variable pay (bonus or commission), stock options, and perks and benefits, depending on the role and location. We’ll discuss total compensation openly in our first conversation so there are no surprises when it comes time for an offer.

At #paid, we believe compensation should be transparent, fair, and grounded in reality.

Our compensation framework is built around clearly defined job levels based on seniority, expertise, scope of responsibility, performance expectations, and impact.

For all publicly posted roles, we share a clear compensation range that reflects the levels associated with the role and complies with applicable pay transparency laws. Candidates are hired into a specific level, and compensation is set at the base pay associated with that level. The posted range represents the span between levels, not a negotiable pay range.

When offers are made, they are presented at the compensation set for the level a candidate is hired into and are determined by experience, skills, and role alignment — not negotiation tactics or who asks first. This ensures consistent and equitable pay for team members in the same function and at the same level.

Equal Employment Opportunity

#paid is an equal opportunity employer and as such, we do not discriminate on the basis of race, colour, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, or any other characteristic protected by applicable laws.

We are dedicated to growing a diverse team of highly talented individuals and creating an inclusive environment where everyone feels empowered to bring their best and authentic selves to work.

If you require any accommodations during the recruitment process, whether it be alternate forms of material, accessible meeting rooms, etc., please let us know and we’ll work with you to meet your needs.
