Staff Engineer

As HouseSigma continues to grow, we are looking to hire a Staff Engineer to help build the next generation of intelligent, consumer-focused real estate products that empower millions of users nationwide. As a Staff Engineer, you’ll be a senior individual contributor who codes daily , leads by example on engineering quality, and ships impactful features across our web, mobile, and data platforms. You’ll partner closely with Product, Design, Ops, and ML to align solutions with business goals while raising the technical bar for the whole team. What you’ll do Own delivery of complex features end-to-end — from proposal and design to implementation, rollout, and iteration; collaborate on larger multi-team initiatives. Set and uphold engineering standards for readability, maintainability, testing, performance, and reliability through thoughtful design docs and code reviews. Tackle high-leverage technical problems (e.g., system performance, scalability, tech debt) and implement pragmatic solutions that speed up team velocity. Improve the codebase continuously : identify refactor opportunities across services and components; champion observability and automation. Harden production : participate in incident management alongside DevOps/SRE; drive post-incident learnings into architecture and process. Fix prioritized production issues with high judgment on risk, severity, and user impact. Mentor and unblock engineers across teams; share knowledge via pairing, reviews, and docs; help with technical interviewing when needed. Partner cross-functionally with Product, Operations, and ML on roadmaps and trade-offs to ensure we build the right thing, the right way. What we’re looking for 8+ years of professional software experience, including significant ownership of systems from concept → production . Deep proficiency in at least one modern backend or full-stack ecosystem (e.g., TypeScript/Node.js, Python, Java/Kotlin, Go ) and comfort picking up new stacks. Demonstrated strength in performance, scalability, and optimization (profiling, caching, data modeling, concurrency). Facility with testing, CI/CD, and observability ; you ship high-quality code in an agile, iterative environment. Clear, concise communication; ability to align stakeholders and provide crisp status updates. Self-directed, highly organized, and effective in a remote-first setup. Nice to have Experience with consumer-facing apps/web , search/ranking/ML integration, or data-heavy systems. Familiarity with modern frontend frameworks (React/Vue/Angular) and mobile app delivery pipelines. How we work You’ll join a collaborative, globally distributed engineering org that balances hands-on building with thoughtful technical strategy. We value integrity, collaboration, and community, and we lean into AI/ML where it truly improves our users’ experience. What you can expect from us Impactful problems and the chance to work closely with technology leadership. Competitive compensation, generous vacation, and comprehensive health benefits (health, dental, life, virtual care, travel). A remote-friendly environment with teammates across Canada; flexible hours for collaboration. A strong learning culture and room to grow your career while shipping real value to home buyers, sellers, and investors across Canada.
