Job Description

Coinsquare's Engineering team is looking to add a highly-skilled software developer. We are looking for an experienced software developer to help drive the implementation and delivery of solutions to challenging technical problems.

You are an advocate for building sustainable, secure and scalable software. If you are passionate about your craft then we encourage you to reach out. We value your personal insight and ideas as much as your technical skills. In no particular order, some of the things we look for most in candidates are a desire to collaborate on complex problems, a willingness and interest in learning from anyone (aka a "growth mindset"), a sense of humbleness, and an appreciation of puns.
