Altus Assessments | https://altusassessments.com/company/careers/ | Canada/US/EU | Full Time | Remote (EST ±4) | $135k+ CAD | At Altus, we create higher education admission assessments that test applicants’ social and emotional intelligence and build software that supports students' learning journeys. We are expanding our Assessment team with a staff-level software engineer to lead the adoption of our new architecture and platform, support product delivery and tackle challenges of scale. We’re a vibrant, and diverse group of 100+ working collaboratively to tackle some tough problems (like how to evaluate empathy in someone who wants to train to become a doctor). We're a team of 30 developers/devops/qa working across several Javascript focused stacks. You'll have the chance to work on a range of different problems and hopefully learn some new skills too. Presently we're working on some architecture heavy rebuilds and exploring microservices. If you're excited about greenfield projects we have much to offer! Our main stacks are: MeteorJS/Blaze, Express/Typescript/Vue, NestJS/Vue, LAMP Software Developer (Staff) - https://apply.workable.com/altus-assessments/j/E0013F10D5/ Perks: - Competitive salary within Canada - Remote first company - Health benefits program - GRSP Matching - Flexible vacation policy If you want to know more about our team culture or have questions about these roles feel free to email me at gguja [at] altusassessments.com or apply directly. We don't do white boarding/puzzle questions as part of the interview process, however we do ask applicants that pass the phone screen to make a presentation on how you would approach a system design problem. Bonus points if you have past projects you're proud to show off on Github.
