Senior Software Engineer
Job details
Full job description
Looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our team in Montréal.
About Lakeside SaaS
Lakeside SaaS is a family-owned tech and software business based in Montréal. Founded in 2015, we run 1 location in Greater Montréal and employ a tight team that values doing the work well over scale.
About the role
You'll design and build the harder parts of the product: leading technical design for new features, writing and reviewing production code daily, and improving reliability, performance, and test coverage in the systems you own. You'll break large projects into shippable increments, debug gnarly production incidents to root cause, mentor intermediate engineers through code review and pairing, and push back constructively when a proposed design will not age well.
What you'll bring
You've shipped and operated production software for years and your code reviews make other people better. You weigh trade-offs explicitly, communicate designs clearly in writing, take ownership beyond your own tickets, and stay pragmatic about technical debt.
Send a resume and a short note on what draws you to the role. Phone screens are usually 20 minutes.
Required Qualifications
- 6+ years of professional software development experience
- Strong proficiency in at least one modern backend or full-stack language and its ecosystem
- Experience designing, operating, and debugging production systems
- Eligibility to work in Canada
Benefits
- Four weeks paid vacation plus the week between Christmas and New Year's
- Equity grant with annual refresher
- Annual conference attendance and external-speaker support
- RRSP matching to 5%
