Rated #1 for customer support and managed services, #paid is leading the creator marketing space. Through innovative technology and a team of ambitious humans, we\'re transforming the future of the creator economy.

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)
