Software Engineer (Canada)

About the Role

Jobright is an AI-powered career search platform designed to help people discover their next opportunity more quickly, intelligently, and with a more personalized experience. They are hiring a Software Engineer to contribute to the core product and infrastructure that serve a large user base.

Why This Role Stands Out

• You’ll be writing production code that reaches real users almost immediately, rather than working only on practice or onboarding tasks.
• The role offers early exposure to AI-focused work, including large language models, agentic systems, and contemporary AI infrastructure.
• You’ll work with experienced engineers who emphasize mentorship and give newer team members meaningful ownership.

What You’ll Do

• Develop and support backend services, APIs, and user-facing frontend functionality across the platform.
• Help power the systems behind AI agents and the overall user experience by delivering reliable product features.
• Own clearly defined projects from planning through release, collaborating with senior engineers on architecture and reviews.
• Convert product needs into readable, maintainable code while raising questions whenever requirements are unclear.

Requirements

• You should be a recent graduate with a degree in computer science, software engineering, or another related technical discipline, or have equivalent hands-on experience.
• You need to communicate technical ideas well, explain decisions to teammates, and ask for support effectively when needed.
• A strong understanding of data structures, algorithms, and the basics of production software development is essential.
• Bonus points for internship or project experience in a software engineering role, especially at a technology or AI-oriented organization.
• It is also helpful if you have shown that you can ship working code in fast-paced environments where priorities change often.
• Practical knowledge of Python, TypeScript, or another modern language, along with exposure to AWS or GCP and SQL-based systems, is preferred.

Perks

• Hands-on product work from the beginning of your tenure.
• Early exposure to modern AI systems and infrastructure.
• Mentorship from senior engineers and meaningful ownership of work.

Eligibility

This opportunity is intended for recent graduates or candidates with equivalent practical experience. Applicants should have a background in computer science, software engineering, or a related technical field.
