  • Collaborate on architecture, shared services, internal tooling, and interface design to drive platform modernization.
  • Contribute to the strangler-fig migration from legacy monoliths, maintaining stability while incrementally replacing old systems.
  • Leverage AI development tools to improve development speed, quality, and consistency, and help design and deliver AI-powered product features (guided workflows, recommendations, validations, productivity tools).
  • Debug and maintain existing ColdFusion/Lucee applications and support stability and incident response for legacy systems.
  • Improve engineering practices by writing clean, well-documented code, enhancing CI/CD pipelines, testing, and deployment processes.

  • Familiarity with AWS or similar cloud platforms.
  • Ability to debug legacy systems (ColdFusion/Lucee experience is a plus); comfortable using AI tools to assist development and debugging.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills and a builder’s mindset—own features from idea through launch and support.
  • Comfortable participating in on-call rotations and providing production support.
  • Nice to have: GraphQL experience, experience modernizing legacy systems, experience working with offshore engineering teams, and a DevOps mindset (automation, CI/CD, observability).

  • Generous time off policies plus 13 public holidays.
