## Job description

Senior Full-Stack Engineer | Toronto (Hybrid)

## About us

Our partner is a modern creator-commerce platform. The product is scaling fast and we’re hiring multiple senior full-stack engineers who like owning problems end-to-end.

## The role

Build user-facing features across a React/TypeScript front end and Go services. Design clean APIs, real-time interactions, and caching that make the app feel instant. Ship with CI/CD, observability, and a bias for measurable impact.

## What you’ll do

- Design, build, and operate Go services with REST/WebSockets or SSE, and a React/TypeScript web app
- Own APIs, data models, and performance budgets; use Redis/Valkey, Postgres, and thoughtful caching
- Ship via Docker and GitHub Actions; leverage Cloudflare for edge delivery, routing, and caching
- Partner with design and product to turn ideas into shipped features and clear KPI lifts

You might be a fit if you have

- 4–10+ years shipping production software on small, fast teams
- Depth in Go and React/TypeScript (or equivalent strengths you can map quickly)
- Experience with Redis/Valkey, Postgres, queues, rate limiting, and auth
- CI/CD and ops hygiene (GitHub Actions or similar, metrics/logs/traces, on-call)
- Proven performance stories: reduced P90/P95, improved uptime, or real-time feature wins

## Nice to have

- Next.js, Node.js, or Python/Django alongside Go
- Cloudflare Workers/Pages, Vercel, or edge-cache tuning
- Payments, storefront, or creator-tools experience

Location and setup

- Hybrid in Toronto. Competitive comp with meaningful equity. We move quickly and value builders who own outcomes.

## About Vamo

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Vamo is an AI-powered recruiting platform that surfaces top software engineers by analyzing their public GitHub repositories and code quality.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Bootstrapped; no external funding raised as of August 2026)
- **Headquarters**: Remote-first; team distributed across the United States and Brazil
- **Founded**: 2025
- **Founders**: Bolun Li (founder, also founded Zogo)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Recruiting & Talent Sourcing (Technology)
- **Target customers**: B2B – recruiters, hiring managers, CTOs, and startup founders looking to hire engineering talent
- **Mission/purpose**: Shift hiring from pedigree (resumes, LinkedIn profiles) to proof-of-work (real code, projects, and contributions on GitHub). The company’s tagline: “Cracked engineers are not on LinkedIn. They’re on GitHub.”

## Products & Services
- **[Vamo Platform](https://vamotalent.com/how-it-works)**: SaaS tool that indexes 50M+ GitHub profiles, ranks engineers using a proprietary algorithm (stars, followers, community engagement), and allows plain‑language searches (e.g., “someone who built a CRM in Python”). Offers three search types: Archetype, Platform (e.g., Shopify, AWS), and Domain (e.g., fintech, AI). Users can directly contact candidates via GitHub email. Subscription starts at $159/month.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation**: Not publicly available (bootstrapped, no funding rounds)
- **Customer traction**: ~2,000 customers within the first month of launch (as of early 2026), including companies like Autopilot and Cognition
- **Headcount**: 6 employees (as of mid‑2026), with monthly growth of +25%
- **Key team members**: David Chung (CEO, joined May 2026), Cam Whiteside (CTO, joined July 2026), Ben Thompson (Founding Growth), Gabriel G. (Founding Partnerships Lead)
- **Competitors**: Andela, Shapr, Fetcher (source: [Tracxn](https://tracxn.com/d/companies/vamo/__4goHoyIRUj9MjD7sKUbicrYeYHZq1Ek0YexMaijeVhY))

## Why Work at Vamo
- **Remote‑first culture** with a small, highly collaborative team (currently 6 people)
- **Mission‑driven**: Building the future of talent sourcing by focusing on real code over resumes
- **Early‑stage impact**: Employees have direct influence on product direction and growth
- **Tech stack**: LinkedIn, HTML, GitHub (as listed on LinkedIn)
- **Recent hires**: CTO Cam Whiteside was found using Vamo’s own tool – a strong signal of dogfooding and belief in the product

## Additional Notes
- Vamo is currently tailored for finding engineers; plans exist to expand to other creator roles.
- The company’s LinkedIn page shows a 30% response rate for outreach vs. 1–3% on LinkedIn.
