Job description

NPX partners with nuclear utilities and new reactor projects to unlock performance through innovation. We combine decades of nuclear operation expertise with AI, digital tools, and lean processes, to help plants run safer, smarter, and more cost‑effectively. Our Digital Transformation team scales this expertise through both NPX‑developed and industry‑leading products, delivering solutions to clients across Canada, the U.S., and globally.

In this role, you’ll define and evolve engineering standards, guide architectural decisions, and provide hands‑on support to solve complex technical challenges.

Because our team delivers across multiple products and problem spaces (both services‑funded product development and SaaS), this role requires comfort with context switching and the ability to bring clarity and structure to varied technical challenges.

You’ll work closely with the Engineering Manager on team growth, delivery health, and prioritization to ensure our technical approach aligns with product goals and business outcomes. You’ll also help shape how AI is integrated into development workflows and products in ways that are practical, responsible, and deliver meaningful value.

🎯 What You’ll Drive

• Define and evolve best practices across front‑end and back‑end development, including coding standards, system architecture, scalability, and quality reviews.
• Shape system design and technical strategy to ensure our products scale effectively across different clients, product lines, and use cases.
• Mentor and coach developers across the team, fostering a culture of learning, technical excellence, and healthy collaboration.
• Partner closely with product, design, and the Engineering Manager to translate business and user needs into clear, scalable technical solutions.

✨ What You Bring

• Results & Impact: you deliver measurable outcomes and business value.
• Leadership & Influence: you elevate team performance and create influence without being asked.
• Adaptability & Growth: you thrive in dynamic environments and embody a growth mindset.
• Initiative & Innovation: you proactively identify and solve problems.
• Cultural Amplification: you strengthen our culture and role‑model our values.
