Intermediate Full-Stack Developer (Contract)
About The Position
We are looking for an Intermediate Full-Stack Developer to join the Structura team on contract. Structura is BGC's commercial cloud platform for automated interpretation of acoustic and optical televiewer data, used by major mining operators and geotechnical consultants around the world. The product is in active use and growing; you'll be shipping features that customers depend on, not just prototyping. You'll work directly with our lead developer and a small team of geotechnical engineers and data scientists. Your day-to-day will focus on the React front end and the FastAPI Python backend, building and testing new features, refining UX, and supporting the product roadmap. The ML/inference layer is owned by our domain experts, so deep ML experience isn't required (though curiosity about applied geoscience is welcome). This is a hybrid position based in Vancouver, requiring one day per week in the office. It is being offered as a 6-month contract, with the potential for extension.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field or equivalent experience
- 4+ years of professional software development experience, ideally in SaaS or commercial product environments
- Strong Python backend skills (FastAPI or similar)
- Solid React + TypeScript experience, comfortable owning front-end work end-to-end
- Experience with cloud deployment (Azure preferred; AWS/GCP transferable)
- Experience with containerization (Docker) and modern CI/CD workflows
- Comfortable working in a small, collaborative team where you’ll help shape decisions
Nice To Haves
- Azure-specific experience (Container Apps, Blob Storage, Key Vault, Entra ID)
- SQL or similar document database experience
- Experience building data-visualization or data-heavy interfaces
- Familiarity with scientific, geospatial, or ML-adjacent software
- Interest in geoscience, mining, or earth sciences
Responsibilities
- Design and build new features across the Structura front end (React/TypeScript) and API (FastAPI/Python)
- Collaborate with our lead developer on architecture, code reviews, and technical direction
- Partner with geotechnical engineers and data scientists to translate domain needs into product features
- Contribute to UX and visual design of data-heavy interfaces (interactive logs, QA tooling, structural data displays)
- Maintain code quality through testing, reviews, and pragmatic refactoring
- Support deployment, performance, and security work as needed
Benefits
- Our ‘One Team’ culture supporting health, wellness, safety and diversity
- Flat management structure
- Flexible workplace with office and home arrangements
- Social and wellness activities
- Casual and professional work environment
