Full Stack Engineer

Summary

Build and ship full-stack features in a lean startup, using TypeScript/Python and AI coding tools while integrating applied AI workflows into production systems.

Software Developer (Full Stack) — Early-Stage Startup

We're small, scrappy, and every hire matters. No room for passengers.

What we offer:

  • Real ownership and real impact — your code ships, your calls matter
  • $110k-150k
  • Equity evaluated after 1 year
  • Remote - Edmonton / Calgary area

What you'll do:

  • Ship production code, fast, with minimal hand-holding
  • Dig into data: SQL, spreadsheets, dashboards to inform product and business calls
  • Use AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) as a daily part of your workflow, not a novelty
  • Wear whatever hat the week requires
  • Deploy applied AI workflows by translating complex business requirements into modular agentic tasks, focusing on observability and reliability
  • Manage the integration of AI-assisted development tools within the production environment, ensuring formal verification and data cloaking protocols are maintained
  • Strong Typescript or Python skills (Both preferred)

You should have:

  • Minimum 7 years experience
  • A track record of shipped, live code - GitHub, a live product, whatever proves it
  • Comfortable moving between "build the feature" and "analyze why it isn't working"
  • Fluency with AI-assisted development - you know when to trust it and when to override it
  • Startup insticts: bias to action, comfortable with ambiguity, no ego about doing unglamorous work
  • Comfortable talking to clients, assessing pain points and translating this to solutions
  • Ability to learn quickly and shift

Nice to have:

  • Experience in a 1–10 person startup
  • Basic product sense — you ask "should we build this" not just "how"

Qualifications

  • Experience with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, GCP, or Azure), CI/CD pipelines, and containerization (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes) is beneficial.
  • Familiarity with data-intensive applications, financial or investment technology, and integrating third-party APIs is a plus.
  • Strong problem-solving skills, collaborative mindset, and ability to communicate clearly with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
