Senior Full Stack Engineer

Senior Full-Stack Engineer (Remote Consultant)

Remote — India · Supporting Pacific Time (PST/PDT)

At Fresh Tracks Canada, we craft tailor-made Canadian vacations for people from all over the world. Since 1996, our team of Canadian Insiders has helped customers plan their vacations and enjoy life-changing travel experiences.

We believe in keeping our customers front and center in everything we do. Everyone acts and operates as an owner, raising the bar through continuous improvement. Our team is made up of passionate, positive experts who collaborate, innovate, and bring out the best in each other.

About the Role

We are seeking a Senior Full-Stack Engineer to design, build, and deliver scalable backend and frontend systems powering our in-house Booking Management System and Salesforce integrations.

You will join our remote team of engineering consultants based in India, working closely with — and supporting — our core team that operates on Pacific Time (Vancouver, Canada). The majority of our engineering team already works this way, so you'll be plugging into an established, well-supported distributed setup.

This role is ideal for someone with strong technical depth in Python/Django and modern frontend frameworks like Next.js, coupled with a passion for innovation, problem-solving, and shipping high-quality software. Experience with AI-driven code generation and test automation will be highly valued, as we continue to modernize and accelerate our development processes.

Working Arrangement & Hours

Please read this section carefully and only apply if you're genuinely comfortable with a time-shifted schedule long-term.

• This is a remote consulting role based in India, supporting a company that operates on Pacific Time. You'll work the hours needed to maintain a few hours of daily overlap with the Pacific Time team.
• In practice, this means a split, shifted day: an evening block in IST that overlaps with the Pacific morning (typically running into the late evening / around midnight IST), then resuming later the following morning to complete your hours.
• Most of our engineering team already works this way, so you'll be joining an established rhythm rather than figuring it out alone.

Engagement

• This is a full-time opportunity.
• Depending on your availability and fit, we're also open to discussing a Fixed-Tenure engagement.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain backend and frontend applications supporting critical business workflows.
• Build and scale APIs, microservices, and event-driven systems.
• Collaborate with product managers, designers, and QA to deliver features that align with business goals.
• Leverage AI-assisted code generation tools to accelerate development, testing, and documentation.
• Contribute to architecture and system design decisions, ensuring reliability, performance, and scalability.
• Write clean, testable, maintainable code and champion engineering best practices.
• Conduct and participate in code reviews and technical discussions.
• Work closely with QA on automation and quality assurance, including AI-assisted test case generation.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of engineering processes, tooling, and CI/CD pipelines.

Requirements

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.
• 5+ years of hands-on experience in full-stack development.
• Proven track record delivering complex technical projects from design to production.

Backend

• Strong experience with Python/Django and RESTful API design.
• Familiarity with microservices and event-driven architectures (Kafka or equivalent).
• Knowledge of software testing frameworks and best practices.

Frontend

• Solid experience with Next.js.
• Strong understanding of component-based design and frontend testing strategies.

General

• Experience with AI-assisted development (e.g., Copilot, Claude Code, or similar) for accelerating code and test generation.
• Exposure to GraphQL and gRPC.
• Proficiency with cloud providers (AWS, Azure) and DevOps tools.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and modern deployment practices.
• Strong understanding of distributed systems concepts.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working in distributed, cross-time-zone teams.
• Comfort and prior experience with shifted or overlapping work hours to support a remote team.
• Familiarity with Salesforce integrations is an asset.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with an "owner mindset."
