Senior AI Engineer at Fable – LLM & Full-Stack Growth — Remote This is a

high-impact senior IC role

at a mission-driven accessibility tech startup with notable enterprise clients (Walmart, Slack, Shopify) and strong third-party validation (Forbes, Fast Company, UN Zero Project). The company appears to be in a growth/scaling stage — an ideal environment for engineers who want broad ownership and visible impact.

Compensation context:

The CAD $130k–$150k range is competitive for a senior engineer in Toronto, sitting at or slightly below the top of the Toronto market for this level (typical senior backend range: CAD $120k–$160k). Engineers at FAANG-adjacent companies may earn more, but the mission focus and equity (stock options) add meaningful upside.

Skills this role develops — all in high demand:

AI engineering: LLM integration, RAG, agentic workflows, MCP — among the hottest skills in the 2025 market

Full-stack product engineering with AWS, Kubernetes, and modern CI/CD

Technical leadership and architectural decision-making as an IC

Green flags:

Remote-first culture with explicit flexibility outside GTA

AI-first development mandate — you’ll build practical AI skills, not just use buzzwords

Mission-driven product with real social impact (accessibility for 1B+ people)

Mentorship expectation signals a psychologically safe culture

Watch for:

The "deliver with urgency" and "fast-moving environment" language suggests a demanding pace. This is a startup-speed culture, not a relaxed enterprise environment. Candidates who thrive here are self-directed and comfortable with ambiguity.

About Fable





Global enterprises work with Fable to make products more accessible for over one billion people who live with disabilities. Our customers include global leaders like Walmart, Slack, and Shopify. Fable was featured on the Forbes Accessibility 100 list in 2025, awarded Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies in Design, and has received accolades from global entities like the World Summit Awards and the UN-endorsed Zero Project.

As we continue scaling our platform and expanding our AI capabilities, we're looking for experienced engineers who thrive in quick-moving environments, embrace AI-first software development, and take ownership from idea to production.

About the Role

Fable is looking for a highly motivated Senior Software Engineer with deep backend expertise, strong full-stack development skills, and hands‑on experience building AI-powered applications and agentic workflows.

This is a senior individual contributor role for an engineer who enjoys solving complex technical problems, takes ownership without waiting for direction, and consistently delivers high-quality software at speed.

Reporting to the Director of Engineering, you will work closely with Product Management, Design, Development, Quality Engineering, and Site Reliability Engineering to design, build, and scale customer‑facing products and platform capabilities. Success in this role requires strong technical leadership, adaptability, fast execution,



and a passion for continuous learning in an AI-driven engineering environment.

Role Location

We're a remote-first company, but this role requires periodic in‑person team collaboration at our Toronto office. Preference will be given to candidates based in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). If you live outside the GTA and can travel for these meetings, we'd still like to hear from you.
