Software Specialist Co-Op Program (8-Month Term Minimum)

We're excited to offer a Co-Op opportunity for a Software Specialist to join our team!
If you're passionate about building reliable systems, improving automation, and making technology work smarter this could be the role for you.

Youll be part of a collaborative, supportive team that values clean code, practical solutions, and learning by doing. This role offers real hands-on experience across development, DevOps, cloud infrastructure, and testing.

What You'll Be Doing:
  • Designing and maintaining automated test suites for core business applications
  • Improving our CI/CD pipelines and workflows alongside experienced developers
  • Supporting infrastructure, deployments, and system maintenance using Docker, Linux, and cloud platforms like AWS or Azure
  • Writing clean, maintainable Python code for features, testing scripts, and internal automation tools
  • Helping shape DevOps best practices as we continue to grow
  • (Optional) Assisting with JavaScript-based front-end services and minor feature enhancements
What We're Looking For:
  • Strong foundation in Python (this is a must!)
  • Familiarity with CI/CD tools (e.g., GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins)
  • Experience working with databases and ORMs (PostgreSQL knowledge is a bonus)
  • Understanding of containerization (Docker) and Linux environments
  • Awareness of cloud platforms like AWS and/or Azure
  • A proactive mindset when it comes to testing, debugging, and infrastructure support
Bonus Skills (The Nice to Haves):
  • Exposure to ERP systems or workflows (e.g., manufacturing, accounting, sales)
  • Experience with JavaScript and/or React frameworks
Why This Program Stands Out:
  • Real Projects: You'll work on meaningful initiatives, not just "intern tasks."
  • Collaborative Team: Good ideas are welcomed from everyone, no matter your title.
  • Professional Growth: Opportunity to explore deeper paths in software automation, DevOps, or full-stack development based on your interests.
  • Mentorship & Learning: You'll work closely with a small, tight-knit engineering and product team.
  • Modern Tech Stack: Exposure to current industry technologies like Python APIs, Docker, AWS, GitHub Actions, and Elixir (Phoenix Framework).
Our Tech Stack:
  • ERP Systems
  • Python (ORM API Development)
  • JavaScript (React Framework)
  • XML/QWEB/Jinja Templates
  • Elixir (Phoenix Framework)
  • Infrastructure: Docker, AWS
Important Note:

Applicants must be legally entitled to work in Canada at the time of application (citizens, permanent residents, or those holding a valid work permit).
