Who you are

You lead with empathy, clarity, and decisiveness
- You're excited by the opportunity to own systems that power millions of visual commerce experiences globally, and you bring a thoughtful, systems-oriented mindset to solving tough technical and organizational challenges. You’ve grown and led high-performing engineering teams, and you're looking for a new opportunity to scale both the people and the systems under your care
- 5+ years of experience managing engineering teams

Our take
Leap Tools is an AR visualisation platform that helps retail customers visualise the products they want to buy within their own homes. Using augmented reality, it purports to increase eCommerce conversion rates by five times and increase web transactions by 10%.
Through its visualisation app Roomvo, Leap Tools can show what products - mainly homeware and furniture - will look like alongside people's other possessions. The idea is to turn potential customers into real customers because they don't have to rely on their imagination.
This simple solution solves a leading problem in eCommerce at a time when the majority of all shopping journeys begin, if not end, online. Leap Tools made its way onto Deloitte’s Fast 500 and Fast 50 for Canada in 2022, indicating a real interest in the product visualization software.
