AI & Digital Solutions Developer

Andrews•Toronto, ON

2d•CA$30 - CA$40

About The Position

This role leads the technical development and delivery of digital solutions that help the business run better. The Developer supports Andrews' Strategy and Transformation team by designing, building, and implementing software, automations, and — where they add real value — AI-powered tools that improve operational effectiveness across the company. The work blends application development, systems integration, workflow automation, and applied AI. It splits between larger products and a steady pipeline of smaller improvement initiatives that originate from people across the business. The right person is comfortable reaching for the simplest tool that solves the problem — a script, an integration, an off-the-shelf product, or an AI model — rather than defaulting to any one of them.
