Join Acuity Insights as a Senior Software Developer in a fully remote role, working within EST and PST time zones from anywhere in Canada.
Be part of a team modernizing the assessment platform, Casper, by building new systems, maintaining existing systems, leading design, and mentoring developers.
Work primarily with JavaScript and TypeScript, with some new code in Go, and older apps being Meteor-based monoliths running on Heroku with MongoDB.
Newer applications utilize React UIs that interact with APIs on AWS API Gateway and Lambda, using DynamoDB for data storage.
The role is suited for a quality-focused full-stack developer who values work-life balance and seeks to make a meaningful social impact through their work.

Candidates must have experience with backend JavaScript or the ability to learn it quickly.
Knowledge of distributed systems and cloud platforms is important, with AWS experience being ideal.
Comfort in working on full-stack web applications is required, including the ability to modify UIs, APIs, database schemas, and deployment pipelines.
Experience in leading large system migrations is preferred, with a mix of successful and challenging migration experiences.
Strong curiosity and the ability to quickly master new technologies are essential.
Familiarity with quality improvement techniques such as pair programming, code reviews, automated testing, and monitoring is expected.
Strong written and verbal communication skills are crucial for discussing issues and providing feedback to team members.
Benefits:
Enjoy flexible and remote work options, with the ability to work from anywhere in Canada and abroad for up to 6 weeks per year.
Benefit from a two-week year-end company closure, flexible vacation policies, and an extra Friday off each month from February to November.
Access a yearly learning budget of $3,000 to support professional and personal development.
Participate in the employee stock option plan, becoming a partial owner of Acuity Insights.
Join the GRSP matching program, with contributions matched up to 2% of your salary.
