Title: Full Stack Developer – Product Engineering

Level: Intermediate to Senior, based on experience

Location: Calgary, AB (in-office role)

The Role

We’re looking for a Full Stack Developer who wants to build meaningful product, not just complete tickets.

You’ll take problems from idea to production, working across the stack with a strong focus on front-end product experiences (react, typescript, next.js), while contributing to backend systems, APIs, and data models.

You’ll have ownership, move quickly, and see your work in action at real events. We’re looking for someone who can think beyond the ticket, understand the customer problem, and help us build better solutions.

This role is ideal for a strong intermediate developer moving toward senior level, or a senior developer looking for ownership, speed, and product influence.

What You’ll Do:

• Build and ship full-stack features from idea to production
• Create polished, reliable front-end experiences using react, typescript, and next.js
• Design, build, and improve APIs and backend workflows
• Work with PostgreSQL and help evolve our data models
• Improve both organizer tools and event attendee experience 
• Debug production issues and strengthen the reliability of our systems
• Collaborate with product, design, and engineering team members
• Use modern development tools, including AI-assisted workflows, to improve speed and quality
• Take ownership and challenge assumptions to find better solutions

What You Bring:

• Minimum 5 years of software development experience 
• Strong react, typescript and next.js experience 
  
• Backend experience (Python/Django or similar)
• Experience building and debugging APIs
• Experience with PostgreSQL or similar database
• Strong problem-solving skills and engineering judgement
• Comfortable working in a fast-moving environment
• Self-starter mindset with a sense of ownership
• Interest in modern tools and AI-assisted workflows 

Nice to Have:

• Experience with high-traffic, transactional, or event-driven systems
  
• Experience in ticketing, payments, marketplaces, live events, or commerce
  
• Scheduled jobs, queues, Celery, Redis, or similar
• Cloud experience (GCP preferred)
• Observability tools (Sentry, Datadog, or similar)
• Experience with AI-powered product features
