• Enhance test automation frameworks to increase release confidence
• Build internal tooling that improves developer productivity and velocity
• Scale ByteForge Labs's Cypress services from Ontario pilot to CA-wide rollout
• Pull ByteForge Labs's Docker stack out of the CA region before the migration deadline

What You'll Bring

• Professionalism, integrity, and discretion with sensitive information
• A high-energy attitude and eagerness to learn new skills
• A calmly-fast-moving bias toward action, balanced by knowing when to wait
• The discipline to finish the boring 20% that makes the rest matter
• 8+ years of TypeScript reps, not just TypeScript exposure
• Around 10+ years of hands-on experience in a technology role
• Comfort being measured against a clear principal bar

Long before technology was fashionable, ByteForge Labs was already solving it for businesses scattered across CA. A principal title opens doors here, but earning real trust is what keeps them open.

You get $188,000 - $269,000, a robust benefits suite, and hands-on mentorship aimed at making you a stronger technology professional.

Nothing stale here: the Principal Software Engineer slot was re-confirmed open earlier today.
