Job description

About Us

AltaML is a leading North American applied AI company with extensive experience in building and operationalizing AI software solutions. We are looking for creative problem-solvers who obsess about the customer to find wins across different industries. We value Agile, Gritty, Humble, and Happy as core principles. We hire to add talent that aligns with these values.

About the Role

We’re looking for a Senior Full Stack Software Engineer with a strong machine learning passion. In this role, you will own technical delivery end-to-end, from shaping the architecture of ML-powered applications to leading implementation across cloud services, APIs, and modern front-end frameworks.

You will act as the technical backbone of your project pod, balancing hands-on development work with technical leadership, architectural decision-making, and client-facing collaboration. You’ll lead solution design, mentor developers, contribute to shared internal frameworks, and help shape how we evaluate and deploy emerging technologies. This is a hybrid role that requires regular in-office attendance at our Toronto office.

You will thrive in this role if you are:

• A builder at heart: comfortable spinning up prototypes quickly and scaling production-grade systems.
• A strong communicator who can translate between business requirements and technical realities.
• A decisive thinker who brings clarity to ambiguous technical challenges.
• Excited by ML-enabled product development and eager to bridge software engineering with intelligent automation.

Responsibilities

• Reduced project risk through proactive ownership of epic-level technical design, execution, and cross-team dependency resolution.
• Improved technical decision-making via thorough research, evaluation, and documentation of potential solutions.
• Strengthened client confidence by leading technical discovery sessions and acting as a technical SME during project discussions.
• Lead implementation for features spanning multiple user stories or services.
• Lead architecture and solution design for moderately complex solutions and chair technical reviews.
• Provide mentorship and technical leadership within the pod; contribute to shared AltaML libraries and assist in hiring via technical interviews.
• Lead technical discovery sessions with clients to clarify requirements and define technical scope.
• Implement higher-level testing strategies, such as integration tests for deployed solutions.

Requirements

• Degree or equivalent work experience in Computer Science, Software Development, or a related field
• 4+ years of experience as a full stack developer
• Proven ability to take ideas from conception to production
• Strong experience with Cloud Services (ideally Azure)
• Strong experience with React
• Strong experience with Python
• Strong experience writing clean, readable, maintainable code
• Experience with unit and API testing (e.g., xUnit, Postman)
• Experience working in an Agile environment
• Experience with Docker
• Proficiency with version control systems

Nice to Have

• Experience with Azure Document Intelligence or similar cloud-based document processing tools
• Experience with serverless computing and workflow orchestration (e.g., Azure Durable Functions)
• Experience with rapid prototyping and taking solutions from 0 to 1
• Experience developing applications using LLM/ML APIs
• Experience with LangChain, Autogen, and VectorDBs
• Experience building plugins/integrations on third-party platforms
• Experience with Azure Cloud for building and deploying products
• Ability to build functional prototypes to test ideas quickly and iterate
