Job description

Location : Remote (with occasional onsite required)

Experience : 8+ years

About the Role

We're looking for a Staff Engineer to help architect and build applications using an AI-first software development lifecycle.

This is a high-impact role—you'll shape technical direction, establish patterns for agentic development, and mentor teams on how to effectively collaborate with AI throughout the entire development process.

This isn't about bolting AI onto existing workflows. You'll help define how we build software when AI agents are first-class participants in design, implementation, and review.

What You'll Do

  • Architect systems designed for AI-assisted development, with high-performance backends in Go or Rust and TypeScript frontends
  • Establish agentic development patterns using methodologies like BMAD (Breakthrough Method for Agile AI-Driven Development) and long-running agent loops
  • Design and orchestrate multi-agent workflows where specialized AI personas collaborate across the SDLC—from product definition through deployment
  • Build tooling and infrastructure that enables effective human-AI collaboration at scale
  • Influence technical strategy and help teams adopt AI-first practices without sacrificing code quality or maintainability
  • Mentor engineers on when and how to leverage agentic patterns effectively

What We're Looking For

  • 8+ years of software engineering experience, with demonstrated architectural impact
  • Strong backend skills in Go or Rust—you understand performance-critical systems
  • Production TypeScript experience for frontend development
  • Hands-on experience with agentic development patterns—you've worked with AI coding assistants, multi-agent orchestration, or similar workflows (familiarity with BMAD or comparable frameworks preferred)
  • Systems thinking—you can design for long-running processes, state management, and failure recovery in agent-driven contexts
  • Strong opinions, loosely held—you'll shape direction but collaborate well when better ideas emerge
  • Nice to Have

  • Experience building or contributing to AI / LLM tooling
  • Background in developer experience or internal platform teams
  • Contributions to open-source agentic frameworks
  • Experience scaling AI-assisted workflows across engineering teams
  • Why This Role

    You'll have significant influence over how we build software. This is a chance to define patterns at the intersection of AI capabilities and practical engineering—not hype-driven experimentation, but production-grade systems built with AI as a core collaborator.

    This posting is for an existing vacancy that we are actively looking to fill.

    We use artificial intelligence (AI) to assist in the screening, assessment, and selection of applicants

    Base Salary : CAD 150,000-200,000
