Our flagship brands - AutoTrader.ca, AutoSync, Dealertrack Canada and CMS - help Canadians buy, sell, and finance vehicles with confidence.\nAs part of AutoScout24 group, Europe’s largest online car marketplace, we’re shaping the future of automotive retail in Canada and beyond.\nLearn more at tradercorporation.com.\nThis role will be within our Collateral Management (CMS) team, a national tech solution that boosts lien and registration services, recovery services, and insolvency management solutions for Canadian Lenders.\n---\nAuto Repossession & Remarketing \nWe’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer who takes end-to-end ownership, thrives in ambiguity, and wants to build systems that matter. This role is central to rethinking and rebuilding our auto repossession and remarketing platform, a system that directly influences how vehicles are recovered, processed, and remarketed across Canada’s automotive ecosystem. This is an AI-first engineering role -not in name, but in practice. You’ll continuously evaluate where AI (including LLMs and agentic tools) can meaningfully improve engineering velocity, system quality, and operational efficiency, while applying strong judgment about where it should not be used. \nYou’ll help shape architecture, influence technical direction, and own what you build-from design to production. The impact is real, the scale is national, and the responsibility is genuine. \nWhat You’llDo: \nBuild & Evolve Critical Systems \nRethink and reshape core workflows based on a deep understanding of auto repossession and remarketing processes.\nDesign and implement scalable, resilient systems using modern architectural principles: clear service boundaries, modularity, and observability.\nIncorporate LLMs and AI-driven components to improve data validation, document processing, and operational decision-making.\nUse AI-assisted and agentic coding tools to accelerate development-while maintaining high standards for correctness, security, and maintainability. \nOwn Architecture & Technical Decisions \nDrive architectural discussions and decisions, balancing pragmatism with technical excellence.\nSet and enforce high quality bars for new services and modules, with a focus on testability, performance, and reliability.\nIdentify and reduce technical debt in ways that measurably improve developer velocity and system robustness. \nBuild With an Ownership Mindset \nWork across the full software lifecycle: design, build, deploy, operate, and iterate.\nEmbrace a “you build it, you run it” DevOps mindset alongside your team.\nMake thoughtful trade-offs between effort, quality, and user value-always with accountability for outcomes. \nCollaborate & Lead \nWork closely with product managers, designers, and other engineers in an agile, cross-functional team.\nContribute ideas, challenge assumptions, and continuously improve how we build software.\nMentor and support other engineers through code reviews, design discussions, and technical leadership. \nWhat We’reLooking For:\nA senior engineer who owns results, not just implementations.\nSomeone who enjoys complex problem-solving and isn’t afraid of legacy systems-or changing them.\nStrong engineering fundamentals: clean code, testing discipline, system design, and performance awareness.\nStrong experience with TypeScript and modern React / Next.js\nStrong experience building production systems with .NET (Core / modern .NET preferred).\nComfort operating in production environments and learning from real-world feedback.\nA builder’s mindset: If you can think it, you can build it. If you build it, you own it.\nExperience leveraging AI, Generative AI (GenAI) to enhance engineering productivity, automate repetitive tasks, and optimize workflows. You should demonstrate the ability to integrate AI-driven solutions into your daily work - such as code generation, debugging, reviews, documentation, and decision support-to improve efficiency for yourself and your teams. A proactive approach to exploring and implementing AI tools that drive innovation and streamline development processes is highly valued. \nWhat’s In It For You?\nWe understand that there is life at work and life outside of work. Here are a few benefits we all benefit from that support us to be our creative best. \n Benefits from Day 1 \nGym discounts\nEmployee and Family Assistance program\nVirtual wellness events\nConferences & training budget\nRegular internal training programs \nFinancial planning \nLet us help you invest in your future with 3% matching towards your pension and multiple forms of income protection. \n Competitive salary \nAnnual bonus structure\n3% CPP matching \n---\nThe base salary range for this position is CAD $140,000 - CAD $190,000.\nThis range reflects the expected compensation at the time of posting.
