  • Drive excellence in CI / CD pipelines, automated testing, and progressive delivery.
  • Leverage AI responsibly to enhance product capabilities and engineering workflows.

Qualifications

  • 15+ years in software engineering, 8+ years in leadership roles (including managing managers).
  • Proven success leading remote, distributed teams and partnering cross-functionally.
  • Ability to build strong relationships and create an environment where people feel valued and heard.
  • Experience with compliance archiving & eDiscovery (journaling, legal hold, WORM storage).
  • Expertise in AWS and / or Azure, multiregional deployments, and cost optimization.
  • Strong background in CI / CD, observability, and incident management.
  • Hands on experience with largescale data systems (ETL, search / indexing, object storage).
  • Experience applying AI / ML in enterprise products with governance and guardrails.
  • What You’ll Get From Us

  • Equity, in the form of non-qualifying options
  • High-quality health benefits
  • Retirement Plan with employer match
  • Career-growth opportunities
  • Flexible Time Off and Paid Time Off benefits
  • Volunteer opportunities
  • The anticipated on-target earnings range for this role is CAD 173,000 to CAD 288,000. Actual compensation offered will be dependent upon the individual's skills, experience, and qualifications as they directly relate to the requirements of the position, the budget for the position, and applicable employment laws.
