Who you are

Alignment with our Core Values
Able to code in Python using asynchronous programming or desire to learn it quickly
Ideally with 2-4 years working as a Software Developer or Engineer on a team with a production-quality business solution
Understand microservices architecture that utilizes both REST APIs and event-based architecture from a security perspective (for example, understanding the vulnerabilities of HTTP Protocol)
Realize the value of customer data traveling through the wire and the technologies used to make data cryptographically secure, such as Hashicorp Vault, SSL/TLS
Built a live, self-healing product relying on distributed systems, using non-relational databases (bonus points if it scaled to support more clients)
Big fan of automation -- our entire development and deployment pipeline (for our social media product) is automated using Ansible, Stackstorm (IFTTT), and Hashicorp Consul, Terraform, and Helm
Experience working with cloud technologies such as AWS
Top-notch team communicator, share knowledge with peers, create tools that help Devs be more productive and utilize the tools and process we use, like Slack, Jira, and GitHub, and happy to work with legacy code
Able to work 40 hours a week and either:
Authorized to work in Canada (anywhere in Canada works for us)
Aspiring to work in Canada and can obtain a work permit (yes, we can help with that)
Willing to work remotely as a contractor
Can be anywhere in the world as long as you commit to overlapping 4-8 hours of time with Vancouver and can work with a team in English

What the job involves

Engineer business solutions and a highly available, self-healing platform (using best practices) that can handle the massive amounts of our customers’ data as we scale, optimized for high performance, efficiency, stability, and quality, using our techstack which includes:
Docker, Docker Swarm, Kubernetes, EKS
Cassandra, Postgres, ElasticSearch, Redis (we’re fans of polyglot persistence, and use what makes the most sense for scaling) and their counterparts on AWS (Keyspaces, AuroraDB, Opensearch, and Elasticache)
A cloud-based platform built on Amazon Web Services
Tornado, Django, AsyncIO, and Celery
Keep up with our API partners as they grow and change (Facebook, Twitter, Microsoft Teams… those kind of API partners!)
Set our Engineering teammates up for success by writing thorough documentation, reusable libraries, and reliable tests
Collaborate closely with internal stakeholders (like Product, QA, and Support, to start) to ensure a stellar Customer Experience of our product end-to-end

Our take

Compliance in large companies has become a vital focus through the 2020s, and Pagefreezer helps keep electronic records and record conversations that may be sensitive or important. Working through all stages of the information governance life cycle, Pagefreezer builds software for creation, retention, management and disposal of electronic data, all on one platform.

Founded in 2009, technology has caught up with Pagefreezer’s archiving solutions, as has the demand for its product. Remote work growth has led to rises in cybersecurity threats across platforms such as Slack and Microsoft Teams. It's built up a large clientele of companies of all sizes, including enterprises such as Lyft, Motorola and Equifax.

Recently the company partnered with SDL, highlighting its continued success in addressing the growing challenges of record-keeping and transparency in the digital age. Pagefreezer is certainly solidifying its position as a leader in the field and with a clear commitment to innovation and customer needs, the future looks very bright for the company.
