About you:

You are a person who craves impact. You want to leave a (big) dent on the world. You are generally disappointed in the bar held by most people everyday. You feel smarter than everyone around you, yet that doesn’t make you happy – it makes you sad that you aren’t being pushed to think hard enough. You drive towards simplicity and expect others to do the same.

What does the role look like?

The customer you are building for should be thought of as other client-side developers on our team consuming our API.

  • Build beautiful, fast, polished APIs across the Whop backend
  • Create primitive APIs that are used by internal and external developers
  • Create patterns, prompts, and internal tools to create leverage for other developers on the team
  • Work closely with founders and designers to turn vision into clean architected systems
  • Prototype quickly, ship fast, and care about the details
  • Write clean queries, intuitive function names, and easy to understand responses
  • Delete shit that is outdated and no longer used
  • Come up with reusable architecture patterns that can make us move faster later

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.
