About the role

We’re hiring a Senior Software Developer to lead the design and delivery of enterprise-grade automation from the ground up. You’ll be the first dedicated automation engineer on our team—owning discovery, design, implementation, and operationalization of solutions that eliminate manual processes, improve reliability, and increase speed. You’ll establish patterns, tools, and practices that others can reuse, and you’ll collaborate closely with stakeholders across the business, operations, security, and governance.

 

What you’ll do here :

Lead end-to-end automation delivery

  • Work with Security Analyst to map current-state manual processes with stakeholders; identify automation opportunities and prioritize ROI.

  • Design target-state workflows and systems; define SLAs, success metrics, and operational readiness.

  • Own the backlog in collaboration with our tech lead to implement our roadmap, and delivery milestones for automation initiatives.


Build secure, reliable automation services

  • Design and deliver automation solutions that integrate with enterprise tools and business processes.

  • Develop reliable Python services, APIs, and workflows to orchestrate tools, agents, and data sources.


Engineering excellence and operations

  • Produce clean, well-tested, well-documented code with strong engineering standards (clean architecture, design patterns)

  • Build for reliability: observability, logs, metrics, traces, alerting; performance profiling and optimization

  • Contribute to platform standards: reusable libraries, templates, CI/CD patterns, secure-by-default practices.

  • Use GitHub expertly for version control and collaboration: clear branching, disciplined PRs/reviews, protected branches with required checks, and automated workflows (GitHub Actions).

 

Governance, risk, and compliance by design

  • Ensure solutions meet enterprise expectations for: Security (secrets management, least privilege, secure coding), Privacy & data handling (classification-aware design, retention considerations), Operational controls (change management, incident readiness)

  • Collaborate with architecture, security, and governance stakeholders to ensure the solution is deployable and supportable.


Leadership and collaboration

  • Operate autonomously within our team—creating clarity in ambiguity and driving projects to completion—while actively collaborating across the broader automation community and partnering closely with the Identity development teams.

  • Mentor peers; elevate team practices through reviews, pairing, and documentation.

  • Communicate clearly with non-technical stakeholders; write concise design docs and decision records.

 

What you bring to the table

  • Communicate clearly with non-technical stakeholders; write concise design docs and decision records.

  • Experience automating IT/security workflows (e.g., provisioning, deprovisioning, access reviews, ticket triage, entitlement management).

  • Familiarity with IAM platforms (e.g., Azure AD/Microsoft Entra, IIQ, Cyberark), and governance processes (e.g., SoD, role modeling, JML lifecycles).

  • Knowledge of audit requirements and control automation.

  • 5+ years of professional software development experience, with a strong focus on automation at scale.

  • Strong proficiency in Python (preferred) and/or TypeScript/Node.js; experience with API development (REST/async), integration patterns, and event-driven architecture.

  • Hands-on experience with:

    • Workflow orchestration and schedulers and/or RPA/low-code where it adds value

    • Building robust integrations with third-party APIs (auth flows, pagination, rate limits, error handling, retries).

  • Testing automation, CI/CD, and infrastructure as code (e.g., Terraform, Ansible).

  • Observability (logs/metrics/traces), performance profiling, and production support.

  • Security-minded engineering: secrets management, least privilege, input validation, dependency hygiene.

  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management; ability to lead initiatives independently.

  • For candidates located in Quebec, bilingualism is required considering the necessity to interact on a regular basis with English-speaking colleagues across the country.

  • No Canadian work experience required however must be eligible to work in Canada.


Impact you’ll have in your first 6–12 months

  • Deliver 2–4 high-impact automations that measurably reduce manual effort and error rates.

  • Establish a reusable automation toolkit (libraries, templates, CI/CD patterns).

  • Set observability baselines (dashboards/alerts) and SLAs for critical workflows.

  • Document standards and operating procedures; mentor team members to adopt them.

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.
