About this role
## About us
TitanFile's mission is to democratize secure client communication. This is a challenge worthy of pursuit! The costs and risks associated with complex projects like litigation, processing insurance claims, and conducting regulatory investigations are skyrocketing as the amount of data increases. TitanFile is transforming these processes so they can be done in minutes, not days, by anyone, anywhere. As a result, our customers, who range from financial institutions to law firms and from government agencies to higher education, can service their clients faster with the privacy and security that they expect.
## What we need:
TitanFile is looking for a Software Engineer who is personable, persistent, and confident. A person who is passionate about learning new technologies and improving the skills they already have. A person who wants their work to stand for something. A person able to juggle multiple priorities and work with minimal supervision.
This person will join our engineering team and will build, test, and maintain the server, web, and mobile applications our customers rely on to exchange sensitive information. The role covers the full development cycle, from specification and coding through testing, release, monitoring, and documentation.
Our customers hold us to a high bar. TitanFile is SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001 certified, and we are pursuing FedRAMP certification to serve the U.S. federal market. The right software engineer will appreciate the importance of security, availability, usability, and performance in software systems, and will not be afraid to use cutting-edge technology to solve mission-critical enterprise problems. We expect our engineers to work fluently with AI tooling and to apply the same engineering judgment to what it produces as they would to their own work.
TitanFile offers an incredible opportunity for a Software Engineer to learn and grow, while being part of an awesome growing team in Toronto.
