Auto Repossession & Remarketing
We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer who takes end-to-end ownership, thrives in ambiguity, and wants to build systems that matter. This role is central to rethinking and rebuilding our auto repossession and remarketing platform , a system that directly influences how vehicles are recovered, processed, and remarketed across Canada's automotive ecosystem. This is an AI-first engineering role -not in name, but in practice. You'll continuously evaluate where AI (including LLMs and agentic tools) can meaningfully improve engineering velocity, system quality, and operational efficiency , while applying strong judgment about where it should not be used.
You'll help shape architecture, influence technical direction, and own what you build-from design to production. The impact is real, the scale is national, and the responsibility is genuine.
