Whether it’s a Friday night feast, a post gym poke bowl, or grabbing some groceries, our tech platform connects tens of millions of customers with hundreds of thousands of restaurant, grocery and convenience partners across the globe.

About This Role

Join our Logistics Courier Pay Network team to help us lead, deliver, and care for our couriers and customers by building high-impact, real-time backend systems. As a Senior Backend Engineer within our Logistics domain, you will play a key role in designing and operating the services that power our courier network. You will own backend systems end-to-end, from data modelling to event flows, deployment, and production operations, and contribute to the architecture of an event driven platform.

Your mission is to deliver robust, performant, and observable backend services, working closely with engineers, product managers, and stakeholders to ship features that couriers and the wider logistics platform rely on every day.

You will champion modern backend practices, mentor peers, and help shape the future of backend engineering within the organization by combining deep backend expertise with a strong engineering mindset to deliver world-class distributed services at scale.

Location: Remote (Calgary, Toronto or Winnipeg)

Reporting to: Technology Manager

These are some of the key components to the position:

  • Building and operating production backend services at scale, with strong proficiency in Java (Quarkus, Spring Boot) and RESTful API design (gRPC, GraphQL, or AsyncAPI a plus).
  • Deep experience in event driven architectures (Kafka, SQS, SNS), pub/sub, async processing, idempotency, and Domain Driven Design (DDD, bounded contexts, sagas, eventual consistency, outbox pattern).
  • Hands-on expertise with relational (Aurora RDS, PostgreSQL, MySQL), NoSQL (MongoDB, DynamoDB), caching (Redis), data warehousing (BigQuery), schema design, query tuning, and migrations.
  • Production deployment on AWS/Azure using Kubernetes (EKS), with strong mastery of CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform/CloudFormation), GitOps, and performance/load testing (K6, Gatling, JMeter).
  • Operational excellence using Datadog (or similar observability platforms) for metrics, logs, APM, and distributed tracing, working effectively in fast-paced, continuous delivery Agile environments.
  • Active enthusiasm for AI-assisted development (Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code), making repos agent-ready (AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md), using AI agents for automated PRs/debugging, and applying prompt evaluation/governance.
  • Collaborative mindset dedicated to partnering cross-functionally, driving backend engineering practices at scale, acting responsibly, and helping teammates excel through mentorship.

What will you bring to the team?

  • 5+ years of experience building and operating production backend services at scale with strong proficiency in Java (Quarkus, Spring Boot, or similar JVM frameworks).
  • Deep experience with event driven architectures (Kafka, SQS, SNS) and solid grounding in Domain Driven Design (DDD) patterns for distributed systems.
  • Hands-on experience with relational/NoSQL databases (Aurora RDS, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, DynamoDB) and production deployment on AWS/Azure using Kubernetes (EKS).
  • Strong experience with observability tools (Datadog), RESTful API design, CI/CD pipelines (Terraform/CloudFormation), and automated performance/load testing frameworks.
  • Collaborative mindset committed to driving engineering excellence, acting responsibly, and partnering cross-functionally across Agile software development cycles.
  • Practical enthusiasm for AI-assisted development and agentic engineering, with hands-on experience leveraging tools and AI agents (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code) to accelerate workflows, code generation, refactoring, and automated reviews.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
