About the role

  • Identify and implement codebase improvements to enable AI agents to work faster and more safely.
  • Collaborate with a team of senior engineers in an agile, trust-based environment with high autonomy.
  • Drive decisions and build consensus asynchronously by leveraging AI to write rigorous documentation and specifications.
  • Deliver fast. Learn fast. Repeat. Orchestrate AI agents to build new features end-to-end (from UX to database) with minimal supervision.
  • Design scalable solutions and foundational models that allow us to efficiently launch new portals.
  • Work directly with product managers (PMs) and business partners to define our roadmap; your voice and technical vision matter.
  • Collaborate with a diverse team, giving and receiving the feedback necessary for your professional growth.

Requirements

  • A natural propensity to dive fearlessly into an unfamiliar codebase while keeping the end goal in sight to deliver results quickly.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead AI agents and automated workflows to design, implement, and maintain complex software systems with minimal human intervention.
  • Expertise in designing technical guardrails and automated feedback loops that maximize AI agent productivity and reliability.
  • A sharp product mindset, where your conception of quality and architecture is intrinsically rooted in the customer experience.
  • Experience (or a strong willingness to learn) in developing distributed systems in Scala.
Benefits
  • A well-funded startup with outsized ambitions: competitive salary and equity-related benefits (pre-IPO).
  • Group insurance: Hopper covers 100% of premiums.
  • Comprehensive coverage: life insurance, short- and long-term disability.
  • Health Spending Account (HSA) for eligible medical and dental expenses.
  • Telemedicine: unlimited access to Dialogue services for you and your dependents.
  • Retirement savings: access to an RRSP plan with automatic contributions.
  • Ultra-generous parental leave (well beyond industry norms!).
  • Unlimited paid time off (PTO).
  • Travel allowance in “Carrot Cash”.
  • Total flexibility: on-demand access to coworking spaces via FlexDesk AND a remote work allowance.
  • Entrepreneurial culture where pushing boundaries and taking risks is part of the day-to-day.
  • Open communication with company leadership and senior leaders.
  • Small, dynamic teams = massive impact.
