Software Engineer (GeoTime)

Toronto, ON, Canada

Job Description

We are currently recruiting for a Software Engineer to join our software products team. You will be joining a team of creative engineers and designers building highly interactive web applications for users all over the world. On our team you will be working across our entire application stack.

  • Front end - JavaScript single-page applications
  • Back end - node.js and Elasticsearch
  • DevOps - Docker and Swarm

We don’t expect you to be an expert in everything, but you’ll definitely bring expertise in one of those areas with a strong willingness to learn the others. You will also bring a strong attention to detail and a continuous focus on quality and improvement while working closely with others across our organization.

You are likely to be coming from a job where you have been part of a team responsible for building single page applications using current technology and approaches. Your role may have been specific to the front-end or the server-side but you’re building experience in other areas and you’re ready to take on a job that will foster that growth.

Desired Skills & Experience

  • Strong JavaScript experience (ES2015) - experience with current SPA frameworks (Aurelia, VueJS, React, etc.) is a big plus. We’re looking for a high degree of comfort and experience with front-end architecture, including state management, routing, event handling, etc.
    OR
    Deep experience on the server-side of RESTful web applications - node.js and/or Java, specifically Koa, Spring Boot is a plus
    Both is a big plus
  • Elasticsearch is a key part of our applications. If you don’t already know it, you’re ready and willing to learn it.
  • Docker + Swarm is how we manage all the moving parts. Experience here is a big plus.
  • Sound, hands-on experience with the REST pattern, MVC, N-tiered architecture.
  • We’re not looking for a DBA, but knowing your way around SQL is helpful, particularly if your skills are mostly back-end focused
  • Appreciation of build systems (Webpack, Gulp, Gradle, etc.), tooling (git, linting, etc.), TDD, CI/CD
  • Experience building user interfaces - visualization/graphics a plus (d3, canvas, leaflet, WebGL, etc.)
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills
