About Us:

We exist to modernize the way that vendors and property managers work together. We do this by building a complete vendor lifecycle management solution, purpose-built for the world of commercial real estate.

We drive serious efficiency and cost savings for property managers, while unlocking growth opportunities for vendors across North America.

We’re one of Toronto’s fastest-growing startups, a certified “Great Place to Work,” and recognized in 2023, 2024 and 2025 as one of the Best Workplaces in Canada. Backed by world-class SaaS and PropTech investors—Bessemer Venture Partners, the former CEO of Twitter, Prudence VC, and Navitas Capital—we’re just getting started.

Our team is scrappy, resourceful, and laser-focused on impact. If you’re someone who thrives in fast-moving environments, loves turning ideas into action, and wants to grow alongside the business you’re helping build—we want to hear from you.

The Role

As a Senior Frontend Engineer, you’ll play a hands-on role designing and developing elegant, scalable user experiences while shaping our frontend engineering practices for the future. We’re looking for someone who thrives in autonomous, self-sufficient teams and gets excited about solving hard problems. You’ll collaborate closely with product, design, and backend engineering while rolling up your sleeves to ship production-ready features that drive real impact. If you’re scrappy, resourceful, and excited about experimenting with the latest tools (including AI-assisted development), this role is for you.

What you’ll be doing

• Hands-on Development: Design and implement user-facing features using ReactJS, TypeScript, ViteJS, Tailwind CSS, and deploy/operate frontend services on AWS Amplify.
• AI-assisted Engineering: Leverage AI coding assistants and prompt engineering for code generation, refactoring, testing, documentation, and performance diagnostics—helping shape best practices for the team.
• Performance & Reliability: Measure and optimize for Core Web Vitals (LCP, FCP, CLS) and other performance metrics, ensuring our app is lightning-fast and reliable.
• Code Quality & Testing: Maintain high standards with automated tests (unit, integration, e2e), linting, type safety, and thorough peer reviews.
• Collaboration & Mentorship: Work cross-functionally with backend engineers, designers, and product managers; mentor junior engineers and share best practices.
• Product & Culture Impact: Contribute ideas not just to code, but to product direction, engineering tools, and team culture—we value builders who think beyond their lane.

What we are looking for

• 4–6+ years of professional frontend development experience with proven impact on shipped products.
• Deep expertise in ReactJS, TypeScript, ViteJS, Tailwind CSS, with hands-on experience deploying apps on AWS Amplify or similar platforms.
• Experience with AI coding tools and an interest in pushing boundaries with prompt engineering to accelerate delivery and improve code quality.
• Strong grasp of frontend architecture, component design, and state management patterns.
• Proven ability to optimize performance against metrics like Core Web Vitals.
• Comfort with testing tools and practices (Jest, React Testing Library, Cypress or equivalents).
• A track record of leading projects end-to-end—from ideation to rollout and monitoring.
• A collaborative, customer-focused mindset: you care about how users experience your work.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to mentor peers and influence technical direction.

What’s In It For You

• Equity – You’ll own part of what you help build.
• Comprehensive health benefits including dental, vision, and life insurance.
• In-Person, High-Energy Environment: Our downtown Toronto office is a hub of collaboration, focus, and innovation. We are unapologetically an in-person company because we believe the best work happens when brilliant minds come together.
• 3 weeks vacation + wellness days to recharge.
• Regular team events and a close-knit culture.
• Employer top-up for maternity and parental leave.
• Join a team of high-caliber, like-minded professionals who take pride in their work and push each other to achieve the seemingly impossible.
• We are relentless in our pursuit of success. If you thrive in an environment where hard work, determination, and deep domain expertise are celebrated, you’ll love it here.
• We are growing fast, and this is your chance to grow with us. The work you do here will have real impact on the industry and your career trajectory.
