资深软件开发工程师

Who We Are:
At Wagepoint, we’re good people. Sure, maybe we’re biased. But that’s only because Wagepointers bring the best versions of ourselves to do some of the best work in our careers.
We’re an authentic team who bring our diverse backgrounds, ideas, experiences and cultures together to make payroll magic. Speaking of, we “pull rabbits out of hats” for thousands of small business owners across Canada who rely on our payroll software to pay their employees and process their payroll taxes. And we’re just getting started.
We’re growing and looking for more awesome people to join our merry band of misfits. We are looking for people who share our understanding that when it comes to our commitment to our customers: we mean business. Especially given that the consequences of getting payroll wrong can sometimes be dire.
If you are the kind of person who has always wanted to make a difference and be heard at work, Wagepoint will give you plenty of opportunity to do just that.
The Role at High Level:
We’re looking for a talented Staff Software Development Engineer who doesn’t shy away from tackling hard problems and building reliable, scalable, and maintainable systems. You will be a senior technical leader driving the design and delivery of complex software solutions while mentoring and empowering others. You’ll report directly to our Engineering Manager.
What You'll Be Expected To Own:

• Lead the complete development lifecycle for new features — from design to deployment — ensuring code quality, maintainability, and performance across the full stack.

• Strong experience in distributed systems, Domain Driven Design, and microservices architecture, performance tuning, and system reliability.

• Set up, deploy, and manage scalable cloud infrastructure to support application functionality and growth, with automation wherever possible.

• Ensure service performance aligns with SLA requirements through proactive monitoring and incident response.

• Lead high-level and component-level architecture discussions, documenting designs, and ensuring alignment with business and technical goals.

• Collaborate with Product, DevOps, and Architecture teams to align development with strategic objectives.

• Mentor junior engineers on development best practices, cloud infrastructure, and emerging tools.

• Research, recommend, and advocate for AI-driven development tools and automation solutions to enhance productivity.

• Influence technology strategy and drive innovative practices that improve scalability, reliability, and team efficiency.

What You Bring To The Table:

• 7+ years of experience in software engineering, including full-stack development and cloud infrastructure.

• Proven leadership in designing and scaling complex software systems and mentoring engineering teams.

• Advanced skills in frameworks like React or Angular, C#/.Net Core, scalable API design, and relational/NoSQL databases.

• Strong experience in architectural design, performance tuning, and system reliability.

• Deep understanding of clean coding standards, design patterns, and CI/CD pipelines.

• Proficiency with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP), IaC tools (Terraform/CloudFormation), Kubernetes, and Docker.

• Excellent collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.

• A mindset focused on continuous learning, growth, and sharing knowledge.

Bonus points if:

• You have experience with AI/ML integration in software systems.

• You have a track record of proposing and implementing innovative technology strategies that improved scalability and productivity.
