Senior Software Engineer (Fullstack - Product focused)

Remote-first. Kitchener-Waterloo, Toronto, Vancouver | $120k – $140k CAD • 0.03% – 0.06%

We are on a mission to help companies create meaningful culture for all employees.

Companies are struggling with retention and engagement. When employees feel connected to their day-to-day, they are happier and more productive team members.

Epoch is an employee experience platform that unifies all employee programs and internal comms.

Leaders from Salesforce, reddit, Workday and more (like below!) use Epoch every day to enable their culture, internal comms, learning, and employee engagement programs.

Who you are

Are you excited to embark on an adventure with a tight-knit team, and are a constant learner with a growth-mindset? If yes, you are in for a ride!

You’re a solid full-stack engineer who enjoys shipping real features and taking ownership of your work.

You’re comfortable working across the stack, curious about AI, and excited to deepen your skills in a production environment.

Has shipped production features end-to-end

Writes readable, maintainable code

Asks good questions and seeks context before jumping to solutions

Is comfortable working independently, but knows when to ask for help

Enjoys learning new tools and patterns, especially in AI-powered systems

What you will do

Because our team is small (and growing!), you’ll be given lots of responsibility and the opportunity to have true ownership as we build out the product. You will be a founding team member on our engineering team. This is a unique opportunity to use your technical skillset to make a direct impact.

Feature Development (≈80%)

Lead end-to-end development of complex product features from ideation to production

Collaborate deeply with Product and Design to refine ambiguous requirements into clear technical plans

Drive architectural decisions across frontend and backend systems

Design scalable APIs and backend systems in Python

Build high-quality, performant UI systems using React, TypeScript, and TailwindCSS

Improve reliability, observability, and performance of critical systems

Own technical decomposition, estimation, and delivery timelines

Review code with a focus on scalability, maintainability, and long-term health

Identify and proactively address technical debt

AI & Emerging Systems (≈20%, not limited to)

Architect and productionize AI-driven features (LLM workflows, RAG pipelines, automation systems)

Design robust abstractions around model providers, prompt management, evaluation, and monitoring

Optimize performance, cost, and reliability of AI systems

Implement guardrails, fallback logic, and observability for AI outputs

Partner on evolving long-term AI architecture and experimentation frameworks

Evaluate trade-offs between open-source vs hosted models and shape AI strategy

What We’re Looking For

4–6+ years of professional software engineering experience

Strong experience building and shipping full-stack web applications at scale

Strong frontend fundamentals (React, TypeScript, component architecture)

Experience optimizing data-heavy workflows (query tuning, indexing strategies, async processing)

Proven ability to lead complex feature development end-to-end

Deep backend experience (API design, data modeling, performance optimization)

Experience designing systems that handle scalability challenges (high throughput, large datasets, distributed systems)

Comfortable making architectural trade-offs and technical decisions independently

Experience mentoring engineers and improving team engineering standards

Strong communication skills and product intuition

Nice to Have

Experience building integrations with third-party services (e.g., Slack, Google Calendar, Outlook, Teams, Zoom)

Experience defining or evolving frontend architecture foundations

Experience building AI-powered features in production

Experience with LLM APIs, vector databases, or retrieval systems

Experience operating systems in AWS (compute, networking, managed services)

Startup or fast-paced product team experience

Experience leading large technical initiatives or migrations
