Joining the Engineering Team at Street Context means having a direct and profound impact on the team surrounding you and the customers who depend on our technology as a cornerstone of their daily workflow. Our team is tight-knit, mighty, and growing; with a track record of outsized tenures and overcoming challenges. We place a premium on our teams' understanding of where we're going, why we're going there, and how the work impacts our mission.
We take a pragmatic approach to agile. Our developers are involved at every stage of the SDLC, from inception to design, coding, build automation, release management, feature flagging and ongoing site reliability engineering. We take ownership, initiative and pride in our work and support one another’s professional growth and pursuit of technical excellence.
Our system is composed of a retreating monolith surrounded by a growing collection of microservices. Within this system, you and the dev team will be responsible for building and maintaining client-facing components. The current tech stack consists of ReactJS, Java, PostgreSQL, Docker and AWS. If you’re hungry to learn, humble, and more interested in winning together rather than being a hero, we think you’ll do well here. What’s most important is that you love your work, respect the team and don’t lose your sense of humour along the way.
We operate out of our downtown Toronto office with a hybrid workplace model. While we respect the need for focus time at home, we believe in the importance of strengthening team cohesion and encouraging a strong bond with other departments. As such, this role will require some in-office presence on a weekly basis.
