Permanent Principal Engineering role with a company investing majorly into AI driven development.
What & Why:
Our client, a growing Vancouver-based company, is undergoing a full re platform of their core product, rebuilt from the ground up using AI-driven development workflows.
In this role you will own architecture and technical design decisions across a full-stack, in-flight, AI-native rebuild and work hands-on in the codebase, writing, reviewing, and shaping production code.
You’ll lead technical direction for developers on the team and actively use AI-driven development tools (including Claude Code) as a core part of the daily workflow and continue evolving the team's AI-assisted SDLC and pipeline.
This is a hands-on technical leadership role, not a people-management position.
You:
You will bring the following education, skills and experience to the role:
Strong technical architecture and system design background, including experience leading technical decisions with developers reporting into that leadership (not necessarily people management)Experience in a mid-sized company environment; someone pragmatic, not accustomed only to large-scale enterprise or FAANG type structuresDeep, current, hands-on experience with AI-native development, including tools like Claude Code and modern AI-driven SDLC practices; you should already be bought into this way of working, not learning it for the first timeA builder mentality: hands-on, technically curious, genuinely excited about new technology, ideally with personal projects or side work that reflects this
Compensation:
This role pays between $150,000 to $185,000 per annum as well as a solid benefits package.
