WHY WE NEED YOU? GLAD YOU ASKED...

Pelmorex (The Weather Network / MétéoMédia) reaches millions of Canadians every day andoperates one of the country's most trusted information services, including the Alert Ready emergency alerting system. Our newly formed AI & Data Solutions team exists to turn that scale, data, and trust into a competitive advantage across three fronts: empowering our workforce with AI, building custom AI solutions for the business, and monetizing our data. This is an early, ground-floor role on a small, high-leverage team. You'll have an unusually direct line of sight from the code you write to the business outcomes it drives, and the latitude to shape how AI gets built and shipped across the company.

Be part of the team that takes working prototypes to production quality.



We are building active AI tools powering key workflows for both internal partners and external customers requiring robust, production-grade systems complete with resilient infrastructure, automated guardrails, enterprise fallbacks, and end-user support. You will own the end-to-end production path for approved products, shipping high-impact services one launch at a time by swapping demo shortcuts for reliable engineering standards that can scale.

This is a software development and infrastructure role that leverages multi-modal LLM APIs (text, image, and video). We expect you to leverage AI natively to architect, test, and ship modern production systems - identifying bottlenecks, setting higher benchmarks, and continuously raising the bar.

Please note, that is is a 12 month contract role and we are only considering candidates who are eligible to work in Canada and can work in a Hybrid model at our Oakville location.

WHAT'S THE DAY TO DAY LIKE?

Transition proof-of-concept prototypes to production-grade systems, managing auth, data persistence, CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure, test suites, and operational runbooks

Design, build, and maintain scalable backend services and RESTful APIs

Architect systems for high availability, reusability, and fault tolerance using retries, circuit breakers, timeouts, and automated fallback mechanisms





Establish strict guardrails to enforce response accuracy, catalog constraints, cost ceilings, and compliance with brand guidelines

Implement end-to-end LLM telemetry and observability (e.g., Langfuse) to track prompts, token usage, latency, spend, and user sessions

Develop multi-tier caching strategies across responses, embeddings, and media to minimize latency and redundant API expenditure

Integrate multimodal generative AI workflows into production pipelines, managing queues, rate limits, and graceful degradation paths

Deploy and optimize cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP), overseeing secret management, storage, compute resources, and cost management

Drive code quality and reliability through automated unit and integration testing delivered via continuous integration pipelines

Maintain system health and production uptime through comprehensive logging, metrics, tracing, and on-call rotation support

Author and maintain operational documentation for deployment, incident recovery, and infrastructure spend

Leverage AI developer tools to accelerate delivery while maintaining rigorous engineering, review, and testing standards

Own feature lifecycles end-to-end, from initial release to ongoing post-launch production support

Roles, responsibilities and duties may evolve and change over time.

WE ARE HOPING YOU HAVE:

5+ years of demonstrated hands-on track record architecting, running, and maintaining production backend microservices and RESTful APIs

Proven experience hardening quick experimental prototypes into production-grade, highly available systems with robust authentication, storage, and reliability standards
