Full Job Posting

What you bring:

  • 7–10 years of experience building production software, including work where data modeling or permissions and authorization were central to how the system worked, not just adjacent to it
  • You've owned systems end to end: from technical design through delivery, support, and iteration, making real decisions when things broke or needed to change
  • A track record of turning ambiguous, complex problems into clear, maintainable solutions without waiting for everything to be defined
  • Comfort in large, evolving codebases, with the judgment to improve them incrementally while still shipping progress
  • Strong technical judgment when balancing speed, quality, performance, and long-term maintainability, especially against a concrete timeline
  • Clear communication and the ability to work effectively across engineering, product, and data partners
  • Experience mentoring developers or leading technical discussions that raise the quality of decisions across a team
  • It’d be even cooler if you had:
  • Hands-on experience with data lake or warehouse tooling such as Snowflake, BigQuery, or AWS equivalents
  • Background in a domain where accuracy, reliability, and real-time data were business-critical
  • This role is an existing vacancy and is part of our current hiring plan
  • Our commitment to our Shifties:
  • Opportunity: Our product is evolving in exciting ways, and we’re focused on delivering even more value to restaurants. This momentum creates real opportunities to learn and grow. Whether you’re honing your craft or exploring new paths, you’ll be supported and empowered to own your growth and impact a product shaping the future of the restaurant industry.
  • Challenge: We’re tackling real problems in a fast-moving, complex industry. The work is scrappy and ambiguous, but meaningful. You’ll think critically, act with intention, and shape solutions that make a real difference for restaurant teams.
  • Culture: We’re proud to be recognized among the best workplaces in North America. Guided by our mission and values, we move fast to solve meaningful problems and celebrate wins together. Whether through in-office and remote events, team offsites like Sparks, or everyday moments of connection, we create space for shared growth, collaboration, and fun.
  • Equity: We’re a Series C, VC-backed SaaS company, and we believe everyone should share in the success they help create. When we build together, we grow together.
  • Health and Wellness: We support Shifties in and outside of work, knowing that what people need can change over time. From day one, you’ll have access to benefits like health and dental, lifestyle spending accounts to a parental leave program built with flexibility in mind, to help you bring your best self to work.
  • Flexibility: Our team is intentional around how and where we work, whether remotely, in person, or a mix of both. We prioritize candidates who thrive in a hybrid work environment with offices in Saskatoon and Toronto, ensuring in-person collaboration and connection when possible. Plus, we offer a flexible vacation policy to encourage everyone to recharge when needed. Oh, and our ‘90 Day Shift’ program lets Shift work from (almost) anywhere because who wouldn’t want to trade their desk for a beach view once in a while?
  • Support: We set Shifties up for success with the tools they need, like the latest Apple tech, a home office setup, and some 7shifts swag to make it official. But support goes beyond day one. We’re serious about professional growth, offering coaching, feedback, development planning, and opportunities to grow from within.
  • We know you might not check every box, and that’s okay. If you’re excited about this role, inspired to contribute to a meaningful product, and eager to share ideas that drive real change, we’d love to hear from you. We’re building an inclusive team that reflects the diverse industry we serve, and we welcome applicants from all backgrounds.
  • We thank you for your interest in joining the 7shifts team!

Responsibilities

  • Design and build the data structures and pipelines that power rollup reporting for multi-location restaurant groups, owning the work from schema design through beta delivery
  • Architect and lead early development on a new permissions and authorization system, mapping the migration path from what exists today and sequencing the transition safely
  • Partner with your product counterpart to sequence, estimate, and prioritize across two foundational workstreams, surfacing tradeoffs and risks early
  • Communicate architectural decisions and status clearly to your team, the data team, and leadership, including when the plan needs to change
  • Work alongside AI agents as part of how you build: spec-driven development, agentic harnesses for code generation and debugging, and deliberate agent use in your daily workflow
  • Raise the technical bar of the squad through code reviews, design discussions, and hands-on guidance for teammates
