Posted 3 years ago

We are currently seeking a Software Developer to join our Engineering team. This role can be performed from one of our Canadian offices, remotely across Canada, or a combination of both. Some exemptions may apply. 

As a Software Developer at Clio you can expect a fast paced role that offers many interesting problems to solve. You will be a valued member of a collaborative team and the work you do will play a major role in transforming the practice of law for good. 

A day in the life might look like:

  • Designing, building, deploying, and supporting large-scale applications on the server side
  • Ability to write clean code
  • Strong interpersonal and problem-solving skills
  • Experience and interest in web application security
  • Experience and interest in performance, load, and scalability issues 

You may be fit for this role if you:

  • You are curious and are always striving to improve yourself
  • You have a desire to learn
  • You are a rational and critical thinker
  • You seek solutions when you find problems
  • You lead through your example
  • You are a humble team player

Don’t have all of those? The most important part of this job is that you approach new challenges with curiosity and a drive to apply what you learn to fixing root causes, not just symptoms. Deep curiosity and a desire to learn will help you succeed in this job, combined with a drive to help others by shipping code. We have cross-trained developers coming from Java, Python, C++, and JavaScript backgrounds, and are happy to help you learn Ruby when you get here.

Serious bonus points if you have:

  • Experience with Rails and Ruby on Rails, Angular.js, Typescript or React Native
  • Experience scaling from thousands of users to hundreds of thousands of users

Where your team works:

Clio is currently transitioning to a Distributed by Design workplace, which means a workplace that is built around you. This means that Clio offers employees the opportunity to work from one of our offices or in a distributed manner across Canada. At Clio, distributed working has been built into our culture from day one, with teams (and, at times, founders) distributed across provinces and time zones. We have invested in best-in-class tools, technology and culture to ensure our team members are set up to succeed no matter where they live in Canada. We want all team members to feel like they're able to do their best work here, and we're committed to supporting that whether they prefer to work from an office or remotely.
