Job description

We’re looking for a driven, passionate, and energetic leader to join our growing team as Web and Application Development Manager located in our Head Office in Guelph, Ontario.

Job Description

If you’re ready to make your mark in a fast-paced, innovative, and fun environment—this is your opportunity. In this role, you’ll lead the full lifecycle of our web and software assets, including websites, microsites, and internal/external applications. You’ll guide a talented team of developers, set technical direction, and ensure our digital platforms deliver outstanding performance, and user experiences.

What we look for:

• Solid technical knowledge: web development frameworks, application architecture, APIs, databases, and modern development practices.
• A growth mindset: you’re always looking for ways to grow the subscriber base and web traffic metrics that align with Skyline’s strategic objectives.
• Communication and diplomacy are your strengths. You can translate “tech talk” into business language and vice versa, while keeping everyone on the same page.
• Flexibility – you understand that priorities in a growing company shift quickly, and you’re ready to pivot without missing a beat.
• Creativity! Whether it’s solving technical challenges, optimizing user experiences, or finding smart solutions to stretch resources further.
• Someone who knows how to balance security and compliance, with user experience and company objectives.
• Strong leadership skills – you enjoy guiding a team of developers, fostering collaboration, and setting a clear vision for projects.
• Drive – you’re a self-starter, you keep up to date with emerging trends and best practices, and you proactively bring forward improvements or ideas.
• You are a “do-er”; you like auditing, planning, managing, and upgrading websites.
• Proven ability to deliver exceptional customer (or user) experiences through websites and applications.
• Experience managing multiple projects in a fast-paced environment – you thrive “under pressure.”
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Technology or related field (or equivalent experience).
• Seven to ten (7-10) years of hands-on experience in web development and application development.
• Proven experience managing/managing a team of developers.

Why you want to work here:

• You want to be part of a collaborative, innovative team where your expertise makes a direct impact.
• You’re excited about creating and managing websites, microsites, and applications that drive business success.
• Endless learning and growth opportunities – whether it’s new tech stacks, leadership skills, or strategy.
• Working for a growing company that values creativity, technology, and forward thinking is a must for you!
• We’re fun, we work hard, and we celebrate wins together.
