Limelight is a B2B SaaS company building secure, accurate FP&A software for finance teams. Our platform powers planning, forecasting, reporting, and deep ERP integrations — where data accuracy, security, and reliability are non-negotiable.

We’re looking for a senior full-stack engineer who enjoys solving complex problems, owning features end-to-end, and building software that finance teams trust with their most critical data.

What you’ll do
  • Own and ship end-to-end product features across our React + TypeScript frontend and Node.js / Java backend

  • Design and evolve clean, well-documented APIs and data models (PostgreSQL)

  • Build and maintain secure, scalable integrations (e.g., ERP/accounting connectors)

  • Improve performance of multi-dimensional reports, planners, and analytical workloads

  • Develop background jobs, async processing, and data pipelines

  • Contribute to architecture decisions, code reviews, and release planning

  • Partner closely with Product, Design, and Customer teams to translate real finance workflows into intuitive product experiences

  • Help evolve our platform to support AI-powered analysis and automation, with strong guardrails around accuracy and trust

What you’ll bring
  • 5–8+ years building and shipping production SaaS applications

  • Strong experience with React + TypeScript (hooks, state management, testing)

  • Back-end strength in Node.js (TypeScript) and/or Java (Spring Boot)

  • Solid SQL and data modeling skills (PostgreSQL); performance tuning experience a plus

  • Experience with AWS, containers, CI/CD pipelines, and automated testing

  • Security-first mindset: authN/authZ, least privilege, secrets management, input validation

  • Comfort working in SOC 2–style environments or other regulated systems

  • Clear communicator with strong ownership instincts — you finish what you start

Experience with AI (nice to have)
  • Integrating LLM-powered features (e.g., OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Anthropic)

  • Building AI workflows that query structured data safely and deterministically

  • Experience with prompt design, evaluation, logging, and guardrails

  • Using AI to enhance analytics, narrative insights, or decision support

Nice to have
  • Experience with financial systems, accounting software, or ERP integrations (e.g., Sage Intacct)

  • Familiarity with multi-entity / multi-dimension financial data models

  • OLAP, analytics engines, or reporting systems experience

  • GraphQL, event-driven systems, queues, or background workers

  • Experience in a small, high-impact product team

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.
