Remote Software engineer Jobs in Rosemere, QC

About Motion 💡

The Role

• 🔗 Explore our Engineering at Motion page to learn more about our team, our work, and how we build together.
• 👩‍💻 Browse our Engineering Blog for an inside look at the decisions our team is making, the things we're learning, and what it means for us to be building an AI product today.

What you'd be doing 🛠️

• Build and evolve the systems that provision, update, secure, and observe Motion’s agent environments.
• Design abstractions around queues, locks, background tasks, and service bus mechanics so product engineers can build on reliable primitives.
• Evolve our infrastructure-as-code footprint in Pulumi — defining patterns other engineers can build on.
• Work with Linux systems, mounted persistent storage, OS disks, container boundaries, permissions, logs, and runtime debugging.
• Participate in a small, high-ownership, cross-functional team with weekly cycles.

Our ideal fit brings ✨

• 6+ years of experience as a software engineer, with meaningful time spent going deep into infrastructure.
• Strong production backend experience. TypeScript / Node.js is ideal, but we care more about strong engineering judgment and the ability to learn our stack quickly
• Deep, hands-on cloud experience. Azure is where we live, but AWS or GCP experience transfers if you are strong on the fundamentals.
• Fluency with infrastructure-as-code. We use Pulumi but any relevant experience in Terraform or CDK is good.
• Hands-on experience with containers and runtime environments. Docker is important; experience with Kubernetes, Nomad, ECS, Docker Swarm, or similar orchestration systems is helpful but not required.
• Experience designing reliable systems around background jobs, queues, locks, service buses, migrations, retries, and failure recovery.
• Strong security instincts for application runtime environments.

...and you'll be a strong fit if you align with these qualities:

• You're genuinely excited about infrastructure. When something breaks, you want to understand how the system actually works, not just scale and restart it.
• A strong sense of ownership: you make decisions and move quickly to fix things quickly when they go wrong.
• A pragmatic mindset. You can ship the simple thing when speed matters, while flagging that which needs to evolve later.
• Comfortable in a fast-moving startup where requirements come with ambiguity and the “right” way isn't handed to you.
• You enjoy being a strong individual contributor and a supportive teammate. Engineering is a team sport here 💪

  • In-person: Outside of the option to go to one of our offices, our team gets together in-person for a week every two months, and we have a company retreat every summer.
