As an Intermediate Software Developer at 7shifts, you're a full‑cycle builder, taking features from technical design to deployment across a platform used by 1M+ workers in 55,000 restaurants. You'll work in a cross‑functional team alongside product managers, designers, and other developers, owning your work end‑to‑end and making pragmatic technical decisions that ship. You report to an Engineering Manager who is invested in your growth, gives you real feedback, and creates the conditions for you to do your best work. AI is part of the toolkit here, you use it actively, you know when to reach for it, and you hold the bar on what ships.

We’re building an inclusive work environment that is representative of the diverse industry we have the pleasure of serving, and encourage candidates from all backgrounds to apply.

What You’ll Do

• Design, build, and maintain resilient and scalable backend services, APIs, and user‑facing features
• Use AI‑assisted development tools as an active part of your workflow, generating, reviewing, and validating output with the same rigour you'd apply to any production code
• Collaborate with a cross‑functional team of engineers, product managers, and designers to translate complex problems into elegant and practical solutions
• Enhance the reliability and performance of our systems through thoughtful code reviews, architectural improvements, and strategic refactoring
• Take ownership of production issues, leading the investigation and resolution of bugs and customer‑reported problems
• Contribute to our engineering culture by actively participating in technical discussions and consistently improving our team's processes and standards
• Drive projects from concept to completion, making pragmatic technical decisions and consistently delivering value to our users

What You Bring

• A degree or diploma in computer science, software engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience
• 2+ years of professional experience building, deploying, and maintaining web applications and services in a team environment
• Proficiency in modern web development, including experience with a backend programming language and a solid understanding of relational databases
• A proven track record of shipping high‑quality code, demonstrating a strong sense of ownership and the ability to see features through the full software development lifecycle
• Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts clearly and contribute effectively to team discussions
• A proactive and autonomous work ethic, knowing how to navigate ambiguity, manage your priorities, and make sound technical trade‑offs
• Experience in leveraging AI development tools (e.g., Copilot, Claude)
• A customer‑focused mindset and a genuine passion for building products that solve real‑world problems

It’d Be Even Cooler If You Had

• Experience in restaurant‑tech, delivering customer‑focused solutions
• Hands‑on experience using Elixir in a production environment

This role is an existing vacancy and is part of our current hiring plan

Our Commitment To Our Shifties

• Opportunity: Our product is evolving in exciting ways, and we’re focused on delivering even more value to restaurants. This momentum creates real opportunities to learn and grow. Whether you’re honing your craft or exploring new paths, you’ll be supported and empowered to own your growth and impact a product shaping the future of the restaurant industry.
• Challenge: We’re tackling real problems in a fast‑moving, complex industry. The work is scrappy and ambiguous, but meaningful. You’ll think critically, act with intention, and shape solutions that make a real difference for restaurant teams.
• Culture: We’re proud to be recognized among the best workplaces in North America. Guided by our mission and values, we move fast to solve meaningful problems and celebrate wins together. Whether through in‑office and remote events, team offsites like Sparks, or everyday moments of connection, we create space for shared growth, collaboration, and fun.
• Equity: We’re a Series C, VC‑backed SaaS company, and we believe everyone should share in the success they help create. When we build together, we grow together.
• Health and Wellness: We support Shifties in and outside of work, knowing that what people need can change over time. From day one, you’ll have access to benefits like health and dental, lifestyle spending accounts to a parental leave program built with flexibility in mind, to help you bring your best self to work.
• Flexibility: Our team is intentional around how and where we work, whether remotely, in person, or a mix of both. We prioritize candidates who thrive in a hybrid work environment with offices in Saskatoon and Toronto, ensuring in‑person collaboration and connection when possible. Plus, we offer a flexible vacation policy to encourage everyone to recharge when needed. Oh, and our ‘90 Day Shift’ program lets Shift work from (almost) anywhere because who wouldn’t want to trade their desk for a beach view once in a while?
• Support: We set Shifties up for success with the tools they need, like the latest Apple tech, a home office setup, and some 7shifts swag to make it official. But support goes beyond day one. We’re serious about professional growth, offering coaching, feedback, development planning, and opportunities to grow from within.

We know you might not check every box, and that’s okay. If you’re excited about this role, inspired to contribute to a meaningful product, and eager to share ideas that drive real change, we’d love to hear from you. We’re building an inclusive team that reflects the diverse industry we serve, and we welcome applicants from all backgrounds.

We thank you for your interest in joining the 7shifts team!
