Description

Senior Software Engineer (Full-stack)

Team: Product - Engineering

Location: British Columbia, Ontario, United States, Remote

Workplace Type: remote

Company Description

Swiftly is on a mission to help cities move more efficiently. We are the leading transit data platform for agencies to share real-time passenger information, manage day-to-day operations, and improve service performance. Today, over 200 transit agencies in 12 countries – including LA Metro, MARTA, SEPTA, and MBTA – rely on Swiftly to improve on-time performance by up to 40% and increase passenger information accuracy by up to 50%. The result is better service reliability, increased ridership, and more efficient transit operations.

Even though Swiftly's HQ office is located in San Francisco, CA, we are open to candidates in most locations across the U.S. as well as Ontario and British Columbia, Canada. At this time we are unable to provide Visa sponsorship.

Engineering at Swiftly

Engineering at Swiftly is not only about writing code – we believe in creating empowered product teams that work together to conceptualize new features and bring them to life. Each team aims to strike a balance between delivering incremental improvements, creating prototypes to test new ideas and mitigate risks, and building scalable software using industry best practices. We’re guided by a mission to positively impact transit riders, and we embrace humility and intentionality in how we make technical decisions so that we best meet our customers’ needs.

The Role

Swiftly is looking for a Senior Software Engineer with experience building scalable cloud-based services. You’ll collaborate seamlessly with Product Managers, Designers and teammates to discover the right solutions. You will work across the stack — contributing to backend services as well as modern frontend applications — to deliver seamless, end-to-end experiences for our customers. Our backend environment includes Java, Node.js, and Python; our MV* framework of choice is Vue.js, but we welcome applicants who are excited to work across languages and have strong experience with any major MV* framework.

We encourage you to apply if the above is exciting to you and if you meet half or more of the below requirements. Above all else, we value candidates who angle toward growth, leveraging a positive attitude and the aptitude to relentlessly seek and solve problems to deliver impact. We know the tech landscape is ever-changing and strongly support individual growth. If this is exciting to you, then we'd love to talk!

What you'll do

Design, build, maintain and extend products, features, and functionality that solve real customer problems

Partner with Product, Design, and Engineering to discover and validate customer needs and technical approaches

Prototype quickly, and as necessary, to de-risk projects, test assumptions, and iterate ideas into production-ready solutions

Consistently deliver incremental value by anticipating dependencies, breaking down work, and regularly demoing progress

Communicate technical trade-offs, present system design proposals clearly, and document architectural decisions

Apply modern software engineering practices to deliver robust, maintainable, and extensible systems

Uplevel teammates through code reviews, pairing, and strong collaboration

Take ownership of your code and product domain, engaging in retrospectives and continuously improving how the team works

What will set you up for success

Motivated by mission-driven work and excited to improve public transit

5+ years of relevant software engineering experience

Experience building real-time data processing systems

Comfort applying modern AI tools to accelerate development and improve quality

Full-stack skills: strong in at least one of Java, Python, or Node/JavaScript; comfortable building modern frontends (Vue.js a plus); eager to learn across the stack

Experience building and consuming APIs; proficiency with SQL and non-relational databases, including making informed schema and data-modeling decisions

Experience with cloud-native architectures and services (AWS preferred)

Strong product mindset — you use technology pragmatically to solve meaningful customer problems

Continuous learner who embraces emerging technologies and helps others grow

Collaborative team player who contributes wherever needed to support team goals

Open to feedback (a core Swiftly value!), humble in technical debate, and committed to blameless learning and improvement

Travel note: Swiftly employees can generally expect to travel 1–2 times a year for in-person company or team offsites. As a fully distributed company, we consider these offsites important for cultivating strong relationships across our teams! Attending these in-person is expected and encouraged, although we understand everyone has different personal circumstances and we will consider requests for exceptions. Customer-facing team members and other specific roles may be expected to travel more frequently.

We are an equal opportunity employer - we are committed to a workplace that is as dynamic, diverse, and passionate as the communities we serve.
