CTO/Lead SWE

We are building enterprise-grade, white-label compliance infrastructure for municipal governments across North America. We're a B2G SaaS company with a working product, a founder with deep enterprise sales and business development experience, and a clear lane in a market that is underserved and high-retention by nature. This is a stable, long-term, senior role, with funding lined up.

What you'll do

Full technical architecture and infrastructure decisions

Multi-tenant cloud architecture supporting Canadian data residency requirements (Azure Canada Central or equivalent)

Compliance framework buildout: SOC 2, PIPEDA, MFIPPA, and government-tier security standards relevant to Canadian municipal procurement

CI/CD pipeline, Docker-based infrastructure, codebase integrity, and developer workflow

Technical hiring as the team grows

Translating compliance and product requirements into an executable engineering roadmap

Who you are

5+ years in cloud infrastructure or backend engineering with direct exposure to multi-tenant architecture, data residency, and uptime SLA commitments

Shipped production systems where a bug has legal or compliance consequences

Hands-on with SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PIPEDA, or equivalent regulated environments

Can review and challenge AI-generated code and architectural decisions. Not threatened by AI tooling, not blindly trusting it

Comfortable enforcing security discipline: tenant isolation, authentication vs authorization separation, audit logging, MFA, rate limiting

Can represent the technical platform in front of enterprise or government IT evaluators

Comfortable inheriting and improving an existing TypeScript / Node.js / PostgreSQL codebase

Located in Toronto or willing to relocate
