Senior Software Developer — AI-Powered Aviation Training

Are you a senior aerospace software engineer driven by building robust, scalable systems for aviation training? Join us as a Senior Software Developer and play a key role in delivering cloud-based, and on-prem AI-enabled platforms that power next-generation aviation training, analytics, and simulation systems for aerospace and defence customers worldwide.

Senior Software Developer — AI-Powered Aviation Training:

What you'll do:

• Design, build, and maintain scalable, resilient, and secure backend systems and data

collection services supporting high-volume, globally distributed aviation data pipelines.

• Act as a technical expert in defining infrastructure and application requirements, supporting deployment, testing, and validation of new platform capabilities across cloud and on-premises environments.
• Lead the development of core application services, including asynchronous processing, RESTful APIs, and data access layers that support real-time and batch analytics workflows.
• Collaborate closely with the data science team to integrate machine-learning models into production systems, ensuring reliable, performant, and observable model-serving architectures.
• Design, optimize, and review database schemas and queries, ensuring data integrity, performance and scalability across global deployments.
• Contribute to and lead architecture, code, and infrastructure reviews, promoting best practices in software quality, security, and maintainability.
• Work with DevOps engineers and external partners to design and operate cloud-native infrastructure, leveraging containerized microservices, serverless components, and infrastructure-as-code.
• Develop internal tools and platform improvements that enhance engineering efficiency, operational reliability, and developer experience.
• Produce clear technical documentation and follow disciplined configuration and version control practices.
• Engage with customers, partners, and internal stakeholders as required, including occasional travel to client or partner sites.

What you'll bring

• Proven aviation experience and a strong grasp of flight principles, obtained through formal aerospace education or practical piloting experience, along with a demonstrated interest in aviation, aerospace, or defence and clear motivation to work on systems with real-world safety and operational impact.
• 5+ years of professional experience developing and operating production software systems, including backend services, APIs, and data-driven applications.
• Demonstrated experience as a Senior Software Developer or Senior Software Engineer, with ownership of complex, production-grade systems across multiple stages of growth and scale.
• Deep expertise in Python and the Django framework, with strong experience building backend services and APIs.
• Solid experience designing and operating systems on AWS, including familiarity with

containerized microservices, serverless functions, and infrastructure automation (e.g.Terraform).

• Proficiency with relational databases (e.g. PostgreSQL) and performance-oriented data access patterns.
• Experience working with modern front-end frameworks (e.g. React, Angular, Ember) sufficient to collaborate effectively on full-stack solutions.
• Strong understanding of asynchronous architectures, distributed systems, and API driven platforms.
• Experience collaborating with data science and ML teams, including integrating analytics or ML outputs into production software.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work effectively in remote, distributed teams.
• A proactive mindset, with a willingness to mentor others, influence technical direction, and continuously improve engineering practices.

Why you'll love Working with Us:

• Be part of a mission-driven team advancing aviation safety, training effectiveness, and long-term sustainability through applied AI.
• Work on unique, real-world datasets from aircraft and simulators, tackling problems where data science has direct human and operational impact.
• Enjoy competitive compensation, including base salary and performance-based bonuses.
• Benefit from a remote-friendly culture, with hybrid office access in Montréal.
• Receive a comprehensive benefits package including extended medical, dental, life insurance, and employer-matched pension contributions up to 5% of base salary.
• Access ongoing training, professional development, and travel opportunities as part of a growing global organisation.
