Hi there! Thanks for stopping by đź‘‹ 

Are you actively looking for a new opportunity? Or just checking the market? Well... you might just be in the right place to join our team.

We’re looking for both Intermediate and Senior Developers (Full Stack, Back End and Front End) to join our Lightspeed Retail Team in the US and Canada. With Lightspeed Retail, you'll build software solutions that provide merchants with all of the tools that they need to thrive in the market. You will have the opportunity to work on different areas of multiple products depending on your skill set and preference. You will own and be accountable for features and high-leverage coding projects. 


What you will be responsible for:

  • Building: Code, conduct code reviews, fix bugs (including tackling complex debugging), participate in peer programming, incident response, and reverse-engineering tasks.
  • Planning/Architecture: Estimate, collaborate with product teams, and define the MVP.
  • Learning & Teaching: Share knowledge through lunches, chapter reviews, research, meetups, and mentoring junior developers to help them grow.
  • Enabling: Contribute to shared libraries, and open-source projects, define best practices, and document development standards within your team's focus.

 

What you’ll be bringing to the team:

  • Strong programming skills in either/or Golang, Java, PHP, C#, C++, Ruby, Python, and Elixir.
  • Experience with either React, Vue, Angular or other JavaScript Front-End framework.
  • Solid Software Development experience with both successes and failures that shape better decision-making.
  • Understand concepts like authentication, web security, models and databases, and the way that frontends consume APIs.
  • Willingness to mentor and train other Engineers in the team.


Who you are:

  • You have a passion for software development and a customer-focused mindset.
  • You are a team player always working towards the overall team’s success.
  • You understand the need for constant improvement, self-growth, and accountability.
  • You step up to solve problems for the business;
  • You set ambitious goals, and act with a sense of urgency and focus.

 

Software Development at Lightspeed retail:

  • We build new features on top of a modern stack, consisting of web apps (in a mix of Angular & React) communicating through GraphQL and REST APIs to Go services, backed by databases and Kafka topics, all deployed using Docker in a continuous delivery cycle to AWS.
  • You don’t need to have experience in any of our specific technologies: we’re great at teaching good Developer's how to use our modern SaaS stack.
  • We don't follow rigid Scrum or Kanban, but we do work in an agile, iterative way, and try to continuously improve and implement what works for us.
  • We value letting our merchants experience what we're building as soon as possible - So we deploy a change to production on average every 7 minutes.
  • Open culture and a continuous improvement mindset.


What's in it for you?

  • Join a fast-paced, high-growth company.
  • Work on high-traffic products used at a global scale providing critical services for our
  • merchants.
  • Surround yourself with strong talent and enjoy continuous professional growth.
  • Develop in a modern and proven technology stack.
  • Great benefits and perks, including equity and flexible/hybrid remote work options, in a
  • diverse and inclusive environment.
  • Opportunities to learn and expand your skill set.
  • Become a valued part of the diverse and inclusive Lightspeed organization.

... and enjoy a range of benefits that’ll keep you happy, healthy and (not) hungry:

  • Lightspeed equity scheme (we are all owners)
  • Flexible paid time off policy
  • Health Insurance
  • Health and wellness benefit of $500 per year
  • Paid leave and assistance for new parents
  • Mental health online platform and counselling & coaching services
  • Volunteer day

I've been using this job search site for a while now, and it’s honestly one of the best out there! The clean and easy-to-navigate UI makes the whole job-hunting process so much smoother. Plus, the job postings are always up-to-date, so I never feel like I’m wasting time. The cherry on top is the owner—super kind and always quick to respond. Definitely recommend checking it out if you're on the job hunt!

As a student navigating the job market, I've found LinkedIn increasingly frustrating due to numerous fake postings by consultancies. In contrast, this job posting website has been a game-changer for me. It offers genuine opportunities and a straightforward application process, making it much easier to find and apply for real jobs. Highly recommend it to fellow students seeking reliable job listings!

Echo Jobs has been exceptional in my job hunt where it provides one platform to job hunt and I don't have to open 10 websites just to look for a job. It has also helped me focus much on the job skill and the location filtering out the onsite jobs and remote ones. The only feature that I would request is to display fully remote jobs that are not restricted to a country since the one available shows ie, Remote, US yet. But if it could show remote only, that would be helpful not only to me but to other people applying for full remote and not tied to only US candidates

I found EchoJobs in 2022, and I love it. It has a lot of remote jobs. It's exclusive to software and technology jobs (helpful for devs like me). What I like the most are its filters and its API. If you're a tech professional seeking remote work, I highly recommend giving it a try to EchoJobs.

Best wishes with EchoJobs—it's become my favorite job board overnight!

Simply put, it's the most up to date tech jobs aggregator I’ve found. I'm like... "I don't have to check 10+ jobs boards daily just to see if there's a new job listing? sign me up!" The filters are also quite helpful! The UI is very clean and straightforward. Love it!
