This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for an AI First Software Engineer based in United States.
This is an opportunity for a software engineer to build and operate high-value digital marketplace systems at significant scale.
You’ll work in an AI-first engineering environment where modern development tools are used to accelerate coding, testing, debugging, and documentation.
The role combines hands-on software development with end-to-end ownership of scalable, resilient, and production-ready systems.
You’ll contribute to customer-facing experiences and core platform services while partnering closely with Product, Data, Infrastructure, and SRE teams.
AI will be treated as a practical engineering accelerator, while strong technical judgment, quality, reliability, and accountability remain essential.
You’ll have the opportunity to influence platform modernization, introduce AI-enabled capabilities, and solve complex technical and business problems.
This fully remote Canadian role is suited to engineers who are curious, product-minded, technically versatile, and eager to shape the future of software development.
Accountabilities
- Design, develop, deploy, and operate scalable services supporting high-volume digital marketplace workflows and customer-facing experiences.
- Build APIs and backend services within a modern, cloud-native and AI-enabled technology environment.
- Develop and integrate AI-powered capabilities into product features, including pricing logic, negotiation workflows, automation, and other business processes.
- Use AI development tools such as coding copilots, AI debuggers, test generators, and documentation assistants to increase engineering speed and effectiveness.
- Apply critical engineering judgment when reviewing AI-generated code and recommendations, ensuring solutions remain secure, maintainable, reliable, and production-ready.
- Design and maintain distributed systems, microservices, and event-driven architectures where appropriate.
- Partner with Product Managers to translate business and customer requirements into durable, scalable technical solutions.
- Work closely with Data Engineering, Infrastructure, and Site Reliability Engineering teams to deliver reliable platform capabilities.
- Participate in on-call rotations and provide operational support for live production systems.
- Monitor and improve system reliability, performance, security, observability, and overall operational health.
- Contribute to technical direction, engineering standards, architecture decisions, and the long-term modernization of platform systems.
- Apply AI-assisted approaches to coding, refactoring, test coverage, debugging, root-cause analysis, documentation, and repetitive engineering tasks.
- Take ownership of features and systems throughout their lifecycle, from design and implementation through deployment and ongoing support.
Requirements
- 3+ years of professional experience building and supporting production software systems.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
- Strong backend development experience with one or more languages such as Java, Kotlin, Go, Python, .NET, Ruby, or a similar technology.
- Solid understanding of APIs, distributed systems, cloud-native architecture, and modern software engineering principles.
- Experience working with modern CI/CD environments and production deployment practices.
- Experience with observability, monitoring, troubleshooting, and incident response.
- Demonstrated ability to own features and systems end-to-end, including reliability and operational performance.
- An established AI-first development mindset, with hands-on use of tools such as code copilots, AI debugging assistants, or automated test-generation tools.
- Ability to critically evaluate AI-generated outputs rather than accepting them without technical validation.
- Curiosity about applying AI to practical customer and business problems and the ability to adapt as AI development tooling evolves.
- Strong product mindset, with an understanding of how technical decisions affect customers, business outcomes, and overall user experience.
- Excellent collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively across Product, Data, Infrastructure, and SRE teams.
- Frontend experience with React or TypeScript is an asset.
- Experience with AWS or comparable cloud platforms is an asset.
- Familiarity with microservices, event-driven architectures, SQL, and data-driven applications is an advantage.
- Experience in marketplace, e-commerce, or other high-volume transaction environments is a plus.
- Reliability engineering or SRE experience is beneficial.
- Experience modernizing or migrating legacy systems is an advantage.
Benefits
- Salary: CA$95,000–CA$140,000 annually, depending on experience, skills, qualifications, and other relevant factors.
- Remote work: Fully remote opportunity for candidates based in United States.
- Competitive overall compensation package.
- Medical, dental, and vision benefits, with applicable health spending account options.
- RRSP with company matching for Canadian employees.
- Paid vacation, personal, and sick time.
- Robust Employee Assistance Program.
- Employer-supported volunteer day to give back to the community.
- Tuition reimbursement for eligible programs.
- Opportunities to broaden technical expertise and share knowledge across a global organization.
- Internal promotion opportunities, diverse career paths, and meaningful opportunities for professional advancement.
- Opportunity to work on large-scale marketplace technology and contribute to an organization-wide AI and platform modernization initiative.
