✨ AI Summary

Apartment List, a real estate marketplace, is hiring a Senior Software Engineer II for its remote Canadian team. The role blends full-stack product engineering with ML Ops, utilizing a tech stack of TypeScript, Python, Go, Ruby, and GCP (Vertex AI). Candidates require 5+ years of backend or full-stack experience, mentorship skills, and comfort with AI tools. Compensation ranges from $129,000 to $174,000 TTC plus equity depending on location zone.

About the Role


As a Software Engineer on the Marketplace team, you’ll work at the intersection of full-stack product engineering and machine learning operations—helping power the systems that match renters to homes across ApartmentList.com and Sunny.com. You’ll contribute to a range of work: building and maintaining the backend which powers search, supporting ML pipelines and model serving infrastructure, and collaborating closely with data scientists and engineers to bring ML capabilities into production.

This is a blended role for an engineer who is comfortable context-switching between product feature work and ML infrastructure, and who is excited to grow their depth in both areas. You’ll work closely with your Engineering Manager, product partners, and a globally distributed team.

What You’ll Do


  • Build and maintain full-stack features across our marketplace products, including search, ranking, and renter-facing UI
  • Support and extend ML Ops infrastructure including model deployment pipelines, feature stores, and monitoring - primarily on Chalk and Vertex AI
  • Collaborate with data scientists to bring models into production reliably and at scale
  • Write clean, well-tested code and participate actively in code reviews
  • Contribute to technical planning and help break down complex problems into well-scoped, executable work
  • Identify and address performance, reliability, and scalability issues in existing systems
  • Communicate progress clearly and surface blockers early


What You’ll Bring


Required

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with meaningful work in backend or full-stack development
  • Proficiency in at least one backend language (We use Typescript, Python, Go, Ruby)
  • Exposure to ML concepts and an interest in working at the boundary of software engineering and machine learning—you don’t need to be a data scientist, but you should be comfortable in that world.
  • Experience with a balanced approach using AI tools – improving workflows, reducing feedback loops
  • Experience working in cloud environments (GCP preferred; AWS or Azure also considered)
  • Excellent communication skills as well as debugging instincts with an ownership mindset
  • Ability to collaborate effectively across time zones and with cross-functional partners
  • Mentorship experience for other engineers


Nice to Have
  • Hands-on experience with ML Ops tooling - Vertex AI, MLflow, Kubeflow, or similar
  • Familiarity with feature pipelines, model deployment, or A/B experimentation infrastructure
  • Experience with search or recommendation systems
  • Experience working in an online marketplace
