You will also need to troubleshoot and identify the root cause of bugs by analyzing call stacks, trace files, and performance data. You will need to work closely with Leads and senior leaders to research new technologies and offer recommendations, as well as provide guidance to more junior team members.

  • Write scalable, high quality and secure software in a variety of programming languages and environments, such as C#, Java, JavaScript, SQL.
  • Perform quality assurance by doing peer review, ensuring coding standards are followed, looking for logic errors and other bugs.
  • Analyze call stacks, trace files, performance data to troubleshoot and identify the root cause of bugs.
  • Participate in development of prototypes, minimum viable products and proofs of concept.
  • Provide assistance to our support staff and resellers from a technical perspective. This may be in the form of on-call or ad-hoc questions relating to how certain features work or verifying the behaviour by reviewing code.
  • Research new language features, frameworks and other relevant technologies and offer recommendations to Leads and senior leaders.
  • Assist in defining best practices to be used in the team.
  • Provide design documents and documentation to ensure efficient maintenance and code reuse.
  • Ensure the functionality, performance, scalability, reliability, realistic implementation schedules and system architecture for each assignment.

What you'll bring to the role:

  • Diploma or Degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Software Engineering, or a related field.
  • 7+ years of experience in full-stack software development.
  • Proficient in C# or Java, with strong knowledge of object-oriented design, unit testing, optimization, and multithreaded programming.
  • Some experience with JavaScript, CSS, and HTML.
  • Experience with additional languages and technologies is a plus, including Python, TypeScript, ES6, .NET Core, Google Compute Engine, and Google BigQuery.
  • Working knowledge of Cloud computing experience with GCP, AWS and/or Azure.
  • Excellent written and oral communication skills in both English and Spanish.
  • Able to work well under pressure and respond to fast changing priorities and deadlines.
