You’ll shape the architecture, systems, and workflows that power our logged-out web experiences, building solutions that are performant, accessible, and adaptable to evolving business needs. Leading a focused web development team with broad strategic reach, you’ll oversee front-end systems, tooling, and infrastructure, bringing a mix of technical expertise, strategic systems thinking, hands-on leadership, and a collaborative mindset to drive web modernization and scalability.

  • Make strategic architectural decisions for a complex, high-visibility web property, balancing short-term delivery needs with long-term sustainability
  • Partner closely with cross-functional partners across Product, Design, Engineering, Data Science, and broader marketing teams, to deliver cohesive, high-impact experiences that align with business objectives and user needs
  • Oversee implementation and adoption of design systems, ensuring consistency, quality, and efficiency across the logged-out experience
  • Drive operational excellence by defining best practices, optimizing workflows, and introducing tooling that accelerates development without sacrificing quality
  • Manage, mentor, and grow a small but high-impact development team, fostering a culture of technical excellence, ownership, and collaboration
  • Navigate nuance and ambiguity with confidence, guiding the team and stakeholders through complex challenges and competing priorities
Requirements
  • 7+ years of experience in web development, with a focus on building and scaling modern, customer-facing web properties
  • 2+ years of experience leading and managing high-performing development or engineering teams, including hiring, mentoring, and performance management in agile environments
  • Comfortable with coding day-to-day as needed 
  • Proven ability to make architectural decisions for complex web ecosystems, integrating multiple systems and technologies, and clearly communicating those decisions to stakeholders to demonstrate the business value of technical investments
  • Experience implementing and scaling design systems within a large, cross-functional organization
  • Strong collaboration skills, with experience partnering across Product, Design, Marketing, Brand, and Data Science
  • Demonstrated ability to lead in high-ambiguity environments and make sound decisions that balance technical trade-offs with business priorities
  • Deep understanding of accessibility, SEO, localization, performance optimization, and security best practices for web experiences, with familiarity in CMS platforms (e.g., Webflow, AEM), experimentation frameworks, and analytics tools
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience leading development for large-scale marketing or growth-focused websites in a SaaS environment with both PLG and SLG motions
  • Experience with advanced experimentation and personalization frameworks integrated into a CMS-driven environment
  • Strong product intuition and the ability to translate brand and marketing goals into technical requirements and execution plans

What you need to know about the Calgary Tech Scene

Employees can spend up to one-third of their life at work, so choosing the right company is crucial, not just for the job itself but for the company culture as well. While startups often offer dynamic culture and growth opportunities, large corporations provide benefits like career development and networking, especially appealing to recent graduates. Fortunately, Calgary stands out as a hub for both, recognized as one of Startup Genome's Top 100 Emerging Ecosystems, while also playing host to a number of multinational enterprises. In Calgary, job seekers can find a wide range of opportunities.
