About the Opportunity

We’re partnering with a technology consultancy that delivers complex digital solutions across healthcare and other regulated industries. Their work sits at the intersection of up-to-date cloud architecture, AI‑enabled tooling, and product engineering.

They’re looking for a senior‑level engineer who enjoys operating across infrastructure, backend systems, and developer tooling – someone comfortable moving between environments and taking ownership of delivery in client‑facing settings.

This is a remote‑first role within Canada (preference for Quebec‑based candidates).

What You’ll Be Doing

This is a hybrid engineering role that blends cloud infrastructure, backend development, and platform enablement.

Cloud & Infrastructure

- Design and implement scalable cloud environments (primarily AWS; exposure to GCP/Azure is valuable)
- Build and maintain infrastructure‑as‑code using Terraform or similar tools
- Establish CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation
- Support production systems with an emphasis on reliability, scalability, and security

Platform & Developer Enablement

- Improve internal tooling and developer workflows
- Automate deployments, testing, and environment management
- Leverage AI‑assisted development tools responsibly within project constraints
- Contribute to best practices around observability and operational excellence

Backend & Product Engineering

- Develop APIs, backend services, and integrations
- Collaborate with designers, data teams, and stakeholders to translate requirements into working software
- Contribute to architecture discussions and technical decision‑making
- Work across different stacks depending on client needs (commonly TypeScript,



Node, Python, Postgres, React)

Client Engagement & Leadership

- Partner directly with clients in embedded, cross‑functional teams
- Occasionally lead technical initiatives or small project teams
- Communicate trade‑offs clearly to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to internal knowledge sharing

Special Perks

- Exposure to diverse technical stacks and problem domains
- High ownership and autonomy
- Opportunity to work closely with clients and influence architecture decisions
- Remote‑first within Canada, with flexibility across EST ±2 hours

They value practical problem‑solvers who enjoy working across boundaries — you don’t need to check every single box to be considered.

Must Have Skills

- 5+ years of experience in software engineering, DevOps, platform engineering, or SRE (hybrid backgrounds are welcome)
- Strong backend development experience building production‑grade systems
- Hands‑on experience with AWS and infrastructure‑as‑code (Terraform preferred)
- Experience designing and maintaining CI/CD workflows
- Ability to reason about system design and communicate architectural decisions clearly
- Comfortable working in client‑facing or consulting‑style environments
- Self‑directed, adaptable, and comfortable navigating ambiguity

Nice to Have Skills

- Experience in healthcare or other regulated sectors
- Exposure to data platforms or data engineering tools (Airflow, dbt, BigQuery, Databricks, etc.)
- Experience supporting ML/AI systems in production environments
- Familiarity with automation platforms that empower non‑technical users
- Prior experience in technical leadership or mentorship
