Canopy 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, Application processes can be a little stressful. Here are the stages of a typical interview process at Canopy:

• Strong proficiency in JavaScript, with experience in React or a similar modern framework
• Strong proficiency in at least one of the following backend (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
