Senior Full Stack Engineer

Location: Ottawa or Toronto, ON | Hybrid
Department: Engineering
Reports To: Dan Murdock, Director of Engineering
Type: Full-Time
Vacancy Status: This is an active role and we are currently hiring for this position.

The Role

On a small, high-velocity Agents team with outsized impact, this role is for a senior product engineer who wants to build how AI agents actually show up in production.

You will design and implement the product-side systems that allow Solink's AI Agents to reason, act, and deliver value inside our cloud VMS platform. This includes backend services (TypeScript/Node), agent orchestration layers, APIs, tool integrations, and user-facing workflows that turn models into real, reliable capabilities.

This is not a feature-factory role. You are building the execution layer of our agent systems - tool use, workflow coordination, safety boundaries, latency management, and production reliability.

This is a high-ownership role. You are expected to move quickly, ship working systems, and make strong implementation decisions while collaborating closely with product, data, and platform teams.

You will have direct access to the latest AI models and tooling, with the autonomy to apply them pragmatically where they create measurable product impact.

What You'll Do

• Implement and evolve agent orchestration services in TypeScript/Node
• Design and ship production-grade APIs and workflows that expose agent capabilities
• Integrate LLM/VLM systems with internal tools, permissions, and data sources
• Enforce safety, guardrails, and failure handling in agent execution paths
• Optimize latency, reliability, and scalability of agent-facing services in AWS/EKS
• Instrument systems for tracing, debugging, and performance visibility
• Operate in tight feedback loops, shipping working code and validating ideas quickly

What You'll Bring
Must-Haves

• Strong TypeScript / Node.js experience building and operating production systems
• Experience deploying and running distributed services in AWS (EKS preferred)
• Experience integrating LLMs / VLMs into production workflows
• Strong understanding of distributed systems (reliability, scaling, failure isolation)
• Experience instrumenting systems for observability and debugging (OpenTelemetry or similar)
• Demonstrated ownership of end-to-end product-facing systems in production

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience building AI agent frameworks or orchestration layers
• Experience implementing safety controls and guardrails around model execution
• Experience designing event-driven or tool-based architectures
• Experience working in a small, high-velocity startup or AI-first environment

Security Requirements

• Candidates must undergo a criminal records check upon hire;
• Be a Canadian Citizen (dual citizens included), or eligible to work in Canada;
• Be willing to comply with Solink's own security policies and standards.
