Senior Staff Engineer

$150k - $200k

Hour Consulting

Senior Staff Engineer

We are hiring a Senior Staff Engineer for a fast-growing Canadian tech startup building AI-powered consumer products. This role is heavily focused on data infrastructure and platform engineering.

This is a hands-on senior IC role. You will code daily, ship features across web, mobile, and data platforms, and partner with Product, Design, Ops, and ML teams.

What You'll Do
  • Lead end-to-end data pipeline delivery — upstream acquisition, batch ETL/ELT, and real-time data flows (events, streaming, operational stores)
  • Own the data platform and mentor engineers building on it
  • Own complex features from proposal through design, implementation, and rollout
  • Set engineering standards through design docs and code reviews
  • Solve high-leverage problems around performance, scalability, and tech debt
  • Partner cross-functionally on roadmaps and trade-offs
What You Bring
  • 6+ years software experience with system ownership from concept to production
  • Hands-on experience building and maintaining data pipelines — batch ETL/ELT and real-time/streaming systems
  • Deep proficiency in a modern backend/full-stack ecosystem (TypeScript/Node.js, Python, Java/Kotlin, Go)
  • Strength in performance, scalability, optimization (profiling, caching, data modeling, concurrency)
  • Experience with testing, CI/CD, and observability
  • Demonstrates AI-native ways of working — comfortable using AI tools to accelerate development, debug, generate and review code, and improve engineering workflows
  • Clear communicator, self-directed, effective in remote environments
Nice to Have
  • Experience with data-heavy systems, search/ranking/ML integration
  • Consumer-facing app experience
  • Modern frontend frameworks (React/Vue/Angular), mobile pipelines
What's in It for You
  • Base: $150K–$200K CAD
  • Stock options
  • Comprehensive benefits (health, dental, life, virtual care, travel)
  • Generous vacation
  • Remote-friendly, flexible hours
