Software Development Engineer (Full Time)

Intermediate Software Developer, Promotions

atVenu - Calgary, AB - Full-Time

Reports To: Development Manager, Promotions

About the Job:

atVenu is seeking an Intermediate Software Developer to help us level-up the future of promotions within our software. In this dynamic role, you’ll collaborate closely with the development team, to build new promotional features used at some of the world’s most popular touring acts, festivals, and sporting events like Coachella, Bottlerock, Superbowl, Pokémon, PGA Championships etc.

We’re looking for a self-motivated, curious developer who thrives in a high-trust, collaborative environment, and takes pride in delivering thoughtful, high-quality functions that extend all the way down to the fan that engages with our product.

Our Tech Stack:

Front End: React Native (Expo), React, JavaScript, TypeScript

Backend: Ruby, Rails, GraphQL, PostgreSQL, Redis, CouchDB

Platforms: AWS, Stripe (Connect & Terminal)

Tools: GitHub, Sidekiq, Docker

What You’ll Do:

Architect services and systems using accepted design patterns that allow for iterative, autonomous development and future scaling.

Own the technical design for projects of moderate complexity.

Anticipate future use cases and make design decisions that minimize the cost of future changes.

Work with Product and Design teams to play a key role in evolving our architecture.

A collaborative team player with a strong track record of delivering on commitments and turning vision into reality.

The usual dev-activities you’d come to expect like: guiding ongoing maintenance, team technical principles, documentation, managing tech debt, code reviews, component / integration testing … the list goes on …

What You’ll Bring:

• 3+ years experience within software development — you know the platform's constraints and quirks, not only the happy paths.
• Have a solid understanding of software developer best practices; may have taken an interest in a specialization and are starting to hone your craft in that area.
• Experience with backend services and asynchronous job processing.
• Proven ability to quickly understand requirements and deliver clean, well-structured code within reasonable timelines.
• A collaborative team player with a strong track record of delivering on commitments and turning vision into reality.
• A reasonable level of obsession in wanting to solve problems, when you come across them (with a call-a-friend mentality).

Nice To Have:

Knowledge of React architecture

Experience with Native layers on mobile devices
