Senior Full Stack EngineerCanopy, South Jordan, UTThe OpportunityCanopy is a fast-growing SaaS startup in Draper, Utah building simple, efficient software for accounting firms. We are looking to revolutionize the accounting space with modern, user-friendly software for a neglected industry. We place strong emphasis on delighting our customers, spotting and solving problems, and being good people along the way.
We're hiring a Senior Full Stack Engineer to help make our world-class practice management platform for accounting professionals even better. You'll work on a highly collaborative squad alongside other engineers, a product manager, UX designer, and QA engineer, with the autonomy to research, hypothesize, build, test, and iterate on the best solutions for our customers. Our microservices backend and micro-frontend architecture support independent deployments, letting our teams ship to production multiple times a day. If you want to have a meaningful impact at a company that means "agile" when we say it, we'd love to hear from you.
What You'll Do- Partner with your PM, UX designer, fellow engineers, QA, and customers to define and validate new features end-to-end
- Build user-facing experiences in JavaScript/TypeScript and React that delight our customers
- Design and implement REST API endpoints and microservices using Python with FastAPI or Java with Vert.x, backed by PostgreSQL
- Write unit tests, participate in code reviews, and help maintain quality across the codebase
- Own builds and deployments to staging and production using Docker, GitLab, and Kubernetes
- Identify, prioritize, and resolve bugs and technical debt across the stack
- Share what you learn through mentoring, trainings, and interviewing future teammates
- Contribute to effective AI driven engineering tooling that improves quality and efficiency for every engineer
What We're Looking For- 5+ years of professional software development experience, with meaningful exposure to both frontend and backend work (we don't expect equal depth in both)
- Strong proficiency in JavaScript, with experience in React or a similar modern framework
- Strong proficiency in at least one of the following backend languages (Python, Java, or Kotlin) and comfort with SQL and RESTful API design
- Familiarity with modern tooling: TypeScript, Git, and testing frameworks for both front end and back end code
- Hands-on experience with AI coding assistants like Claude Code or Cursor, an eagerness to adopt the latest advancements and best practices, and the judgment to steer AI toward high-quality code you fully understand and can stand behind
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
- Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate well with both technical and non-technical teammates
- A passion for building scalable solutions that have real customer impact
Bonus Points - Proficiency with microservices architecture or micro-frontend infrastructure
- Experience with observability tooling (logging, metrics, tracing)
- Hands-on experience building features that integrate LLMs or AI capabilities into a product
