Software Engineer, New Grad – Full Stack

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Canada.

📋 Description

• Develop features with the support of senior engineers (including REST APIs, message-queue workers, AWS integrations, and the React + Material-UI admin interfaces associated with them), accompanied by necessary tests.

• Troubleshoot issues and enhance test coverage while familiarizing yourself with the codebase.

• Work on real tasks that have a genuine impact on customers, rather than trivial starter projects.

• Refactor and tidy up code when opportunities arise, benefiting from senior review and feedback to enhance your judgment.

• Gain experience across the full stack (backend services, frontend forms and dialogs, message queues, cloud integrations) and identify the areas you wish to explore in depth.

• Document your work in tandem with the code you write, rather than as an afterthought.

• Engage in regular pairing, ask questions freely, and contribute your unique perspective during code reviews.

⛳️ Requirements

• A recent graduate, someone graduating soon, or within one year into your professional journey.

• A degree in Computer Science or Software Engineering is preferred; however, strong self-taught candidates with bootcamp experience plus a portfolio or substantial personal projects are also encouraged to apply.

• Strong foundational knowledge in Java or another strongly-typed programming language; some familiarity with React or another modern front-end framework is desirable.

• Comfortable using version control, submitting pull requests, participating in code reviews, and writing tests, even if you are still learning what constitutes good test coverage.

• Motivated to understand distributed-systems concepts (such as queues, retries, idempotency, and dead-letter queues).

• You utilize AI coding assistants regularly and recognize them as tools to enhance your learning, not replacements for understanding your code's functionality.

• You create small, reviewable pull requests and have a desire to continuously improve your skills in this area.

🏝️ Benefits

• Comprehensive health and dental benefits.

• RRSP program.

• Home internet program.
