About TITAN Haptics
TITAN Haptics is a venture-backed startup based in Toronto, dedicated to bringing advanced touch (haptic) experiences to consumer electronics—ranging from smartphones and gaming consoles to AR/VR headsets and automotive interfaces. Our small, cross-functional teams tackle tough engineering challenges. We value thoughtful problem solving, a willingness to learn, and a genuine interest in how users interact with touch feedback.
Role OverviewAs Software Project Manager, you will own the end-to-end delivery of software interfaces for our haptic products. You’ll sit at the intersection of embedded systems, operating systems, device drivers, platform SDKs, and high-level APIs, ensuring that code shipped by internal and external teams aligns with both technical and user-experience goals. This role offers direct product ownership and the chance to shape the roadmaps of emerging haptic solutions in gaming, AR/VR, mobile, touchscreens, and automotive.

- Maintain the product backlog and make trade-off decisions when needed.
Coordinate Across Teams

- Communicate progress, challenges, and releases to internal stakeholders (hardware, firmware, QA, marketing).
- Facilitate regular stand-ups, design reviews, and code walkthroughs.
Lead Implementation and Quality
- Review and contribute to core production code (Node.js, Embedded C/C++).
- Oversee integration efforts: connecting our haptic API to platforms like Unity, custom console SDKs, or mobile OS drivers.
- Ensure thorough testing, debugging, and timely releases across multiple hardware variants.
Maintain and Evolve Codebases

- Mentor junior engineers and conduct code reviews to uphold coding standards.
- Monitor technical debt and drive refactoring initiatives where it matters.
What You’ll BringHands-On Software Background (5+ years)
- Experience writing production code in Node.js and Embedded C/C++.
- Comfort with end-to-end full-stack integration: from low-level drivers to front-end SDKs.
- Proven track record of designing and leading API and software architecture.
Project & Product Sense
- Demonstrated ability to break complex features into achievable milestones.
- Portfolio or examples showing how you’ve owned features or products from design through release.
- Aptitude for balancing technical details with user experience goals.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Experience liaising with hardware engineers, QA teams, UX designers, and external partners.
- Clear, concise communication in English (written and verbal).
Formal Education
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
Tool Proficiency
- Comfortable in Google Workspace (Docs, Sheets, Slides).
- Familiarity with version control systems (Git) and CI/CD pipelines.
Nice to Have- Personal or hobby experience in web development, electronics, or firmware.
- Side projects demonstrating competence in embedded software or full-stack systems.
- Passion for gaming, AR/VR, consumer electronics, or emerging tech trends.
- Fluency in additional languages (Chinese, Japanese, or Korean) to collaborate with Asia-based partners.
Skills & Competencies- Strong problem-solving instincts and a knack for troubleshooting.
- Resourcefulness: able to find creative solutions when standard approaches fall short.
- Self-starter: comfortable driving tasks independently and following through.
- Collaborative mindset: thrives in small teams and values open exchange of ideas.
Location & Work Model- Location: Mississauga, Ontario (hybrid model with flexible on-site days)
- TITAN operates with a flexible schedule—focus is on deliverables rather than clocking hours.
Compensation & Benefits- Full-Time: CAD 120,000 – 150,000 per year, plus Employee Stock Options
- Contract / Part-Time: CAD 65 – 85 per hour
- Flexible hours and vacation policy (we trust you to manage your time)
