• 2+ years in a software development role for a SaaS business
• Previous experience with FastAPI (or a willingness to learn)
• Previous experience in Redis, Mongo
  
  DB, and/or Elasticsearch
• An understanding of Linux‑based operating systems

We’re a profitable, bootstrapped company that helps health & wellness clinics reduce paperwork, stay organized, and ultimately free up their time so they can spend more time with clients and less time managing administrative tasks. Officially, we’re based in Toronto, Canada but each of us works remotely across North America, Europe, and Africa. We are looking for someone who is comfortable with a 4 to 5 hour overlap with the EST timezone.

We use Slack to stay in touch throughout the week and Google Meet for sprint planning, standups, and a once‑per‑week full team meeting (for a demo day, updates from customer support/marketing/customer success, and we have a bit of fun playing a game together).

• Django, FastAPI
• React, Redux and Redux‑Saga
• MySQL, Mongo
  
  DB, Elastic Search, Redis
• AWS
• Git Lab

We’re a team that loves what we do and we all thrive on our ability to make an impact. We measure our success based on our output and quality of work, not the number of hours worked each week. We value work‑life balance and offer flexibility to handle anything that may come up in our personal lives and to work when we feel the most productive.

• Salary - competitive based on experience & location
• Vacation - 26 vacation days (15 days PTO + 11 public holidays)
