We are a fast-growing manufacturing, service, and technology company with over 1700 employees in over 15 locations across Canada and the US. We’re looking for motivated self-starters with innovative thinking to join our team and help us achieve our growth and performance goals. Sound like you?

JOB SUMMARY

We are seeking a highly skilled Senior Software Engineer, AI Applications to design and build scalable AI-powered applications that drive measurable business impact.

This role focuses on developing production-grade AI solutions using modern Generative AI platforms and services (e.g., OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, and similar technologies), as well as integrating AI agents, RAG architectures, and workflow automation into real-world systems.

The ideal candidate combines strong software engineering fundamentals, architecture and solution design experience, and hands-on expertise in building AI-enabled applications. While the role emphasizes AI application development, a solid understanding of Machine Learning concepts is expected.

You will

• Design scalable, secure, and maintainable AI application architectures.
• Translate business and product requirements into structured technical solutions.
• Build and deploy AI-powered applications on cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, or GCP).
• Ensure solutions are production-ready, cost-efficient, and aligned with security best practices.
• Contribute to defining reusable AI architecture patterns and engineering standards.

• Build and deploy AI-powered applications using:
• LLM-based services (OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, etc.)
• Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
• AI agents and tool orchestration frameworks
• Workflow automation and multi-model integration

• Develop robust backend systems and APIs integrating AI capabilities.
• Implement evaluation, monitoring, and performance measurement for AI outputs.
• Contribute to experimentation, prototyping, and production rollouts.
• Partner with Product and other engineering teams to deliver high-impact AI initiatives.
• Contribute to internal knowledge sharing and AI best practices.
• Mentor other engineers where applicable.

Salary: $125,000 - $145,000/yr CAD

The final offer will be determined based on a combination of factors including skills, experience, and alignment with the role’s responsibilities.

• Candidates at the lower end of the range will meet the core qualifications and demonstrate strong potential to grow within the role.
• Mid-range offers reflect a solid match with the role’s technical and collaborative requirements.
