AI at Canopy

AI is a core part of how we build software. We’re looking for engineers who treat AI as a force multiplier—using it to move faster, reduce cognitive load, and raise the quality bar. AI is embedded in how we build, test, review, and iterate so we can focus on higher-leverage problems for our customers.
