Fortech Engineering | Full Stack Software Engineer | Primarily remote (Waterloo region, Canada) | $140-170K CAD + performance pay + earned equity Electrical and mechanical engineering consulting firm in Waterloo, serving the Canadian building construction industry — a market that's still mostly designed the old way. I designed the original platform schema and UX vision; my early code attempts got abandoned when running and growing the firm took priority. The years since have been spent figuring out how to scale this properly and fill those gaps. We're now at the depth and size to support a real build — with no committee in the way, and with my time properly committed to it this time. I'm hiring an exceptional software engineer to take it to the production platform it was always meant to be. Real users, direct collaboration with the founder, and 20 years of MEP practice plus the platform vision. Few founders building automation in this space bring both. Profitable, bootstrapped, 18 years old. Equity is earned, not granted — a real cut of a real business, not options in something that may or may not happen. Stack: TypeScript, React, Tailwind, shadcn/ui, AG Grid, TanStack Query, Drizzle, PostgreSQL, Python (FastAPI), Node.js, Docker. Looking for: full-stack, agentic-first as a daily working mode, shipper not writer. Apply: jacri@fortecheng.com More: https://fortecheng.com/careers
