Summary ✨ AI‑Generated

A founding engineering opportunity for a hands-on developer who wants to build a product end to end. You will create sophisticated browser interfaces for large datasets, work deeply with TypeScript and React, handle binary data and client-side file generation, and build core platform features including configuration, review workflows, auditing, and administration.

Highlights

Join as a founding engineer with end-to-end ownership over a modern web platform. The role offers substantial technical autonomy, challenging browser-based data visualization and binary-data work, and the opportunity to shape architecture, user experience, and engineering practices from the ground up.

Description

Founding Engineer (Typescript / React) Remote · (preferably in Toronto) · Full-time North American Eastern Time (UTC−5 / UTC−4) ABOUT US Caddie Intelligence builds software for analytical testing laboratories and other regulated industries. WHAT WE'RE BUILDING Something meaningful, in an industry that quietly touches billions of lives and almost nobody thinks about. The work inside it is slow, manual and consequential and the decisions being made every day deserve to be faster, more consistent, and easier to stand behind. THE ROLE — you will build it end to end: The review surface — TypeScript, React, SVG and Canvas over tens of thousands of data pointsInteraction — pointer events, drag, requestAnimationFrame, state that never disagrees with what is drawnBinary data in the browser — ArrayBuffer, DataView, typed arrays, Web WorkersClient-side exports — ZIP, XLSX and PNG generated in the browser, byte-exactThe platform screens — configuration, review queues, audit trail, adminThe plumbing — Vite, component and end-to-end tests in Playwright, CI that blocks regressions WHAT YOU'LL NEED Strong TypeScript and React, and an eye for how something should look and feelYou have built a data-heavy interface that stays fast — not a CRUD app with a chart library dropped inRendering performance as a skill: SVG, Canvas, and knowing when the browser is lying to youEnough backend ability to ship an endpoint yourself — Python, Postgres, an AWS service or two. Nobody is handing you a finished APIYou use AI tooling hard, and you are ruthless about reviewing what it writes (Cursor, ClaudeCode, Codex, etc..) WHO YOU ARE — critical thinker who pushes back · proactive, nobody is going to hand you a ticket · wants ownership of the schema, the screen and the alarm that wakes you up · fast without being sloppy · ability to handle adversity NOT REQUIRED A specific number of years. We care whether you can do the work, not how long you have been doing it Any degree or higher education A design background. You are not here to make things pretty, but you should mind when they are not WORKING HERE A direct line to the founders. No layers, no translation, no waiting a week for a decisionYou see the whole company, not a slice of it — commercial, technical and strategicAccess to the network behind us: investors, operators and advisors who have built and sold companies in this spaceYou grow as the company grows, and you will be able to point at the parts that are yours Caddie backed by the #1 VC accelerator based out of NYC Email: founders@caddieintelligence.com
