Associate Software Engineer (Winter 2027)

As an Associate Software Engineer you’ll play a hands-on role in building and scaling our agentic platform — an intelligent, adaptive system designed to automate workflows and power smarter decision-making.

You’ll collaborate with engineers, product managers, and designers to develop clean, efficient code that drives both reliability and innovation.

Your work will span frontend and backend development , from fixing bugs and resolving integration challenges to developing new features and improving platform performance.

You’ll also have the opportunity to work directly with AI and agentic solutions , leveraging these tools to optimize development, accelerate delivery, and shape how intelligent systems interact with one another.

This role is ideal for someone who’s passionate about modern software engineering, eager to deepen their technical foundation, and excited to contribute to a platform at the frontier of AI and automation.

Participating Universities: This opportunity is currently open to anyone that is currently enrolled at the U of Alberta, U of Calgary, U Waterloo, U of Toronto.

As this is a Mitacs funded opportunity, please reach out if you have questions regarding your eligibility.
