[Hiring] Senior Developer, Fullstack @KOHO

Role Description

We're looking for a Senior Software Developer to join our team for a role to work remotely based in Canada. Reporting to the Engineering Manager, you're going to be a part of a team that's breaking down the barriers between frontend and backend development to ship features faster and with fewer handoffs. We're looking for a backend expert who's ready to support frontend changes—someone who wants the autonomy to build complete features from UI to database.

• Designing and building scalable backend services in Go, working with PostgreSQL and DynamoDB, implementing event-driven architectures with RabbitMQ, and owning production systems end-to-end.
• Building exceptional user experiences across our mobile app (Angular/Ionic), web app (React), and admin tools.
• Owning the full implementation of features, from database schema design and API development to implementing the corresponding UI changes, eliminating handoffs and shipping complete solutions.
• Bringing new patterns and tools to your team across both frontend and backend, whether it's modern React patterns or Go service architecture.

Qualifications

• Deep backend expertise (Go, PostgreSQL, AWS) with a proven track record of building production systems that scale and perform under load.
• Excited about expanding frontend skills—understanding HTML/CSS/JavaScript fundamentals, and wanting to work with React and Angular.
• Comfortable with distributed systems concepts (event-driven architecture, caching, observability) and understanding how to build resilient, monitored services.
• Believing that understanding the full stack makes you a better developer—wanting to see how users interact with your APIs, how your data flows, where performance bottlenecks occur, and how to optimize the complete user experience.
• Collaborative and growth-minded, actively seeking opportunities to work outside your comfort zone while helping others build their frontend skills.

Requirements

• The budgeted salary range for this role is $140,000 - $180,000 CAD / year.
• Compensation at KOHO is determined through various factors including but not limited to: comparable salary market data within Canada, technical skill assessment, a holistic view of previous work history, and internal pay equity with other KOHO team members.
