Full Job Description

We are TRADER, a Canadian leader in digital automotive solutions. Our flagship brands — AutoTrader.ca, AutoSync, Dealertrack Canada and CMS — help Canadians buy, sell, and finance vehicles with confidence.

This role is central to rethinking and rebuilding our auto repossession and remarketing platform, a system that directly influences how vehicles are recovered, processed, and remarketed across Canada’s automotive ecosystem.

You’ll help shape architecture, influence technical direction, and own what you build—from design to production. The impact is real, the scale is national, and the responsibility is genuine. What You’ll Do: Build & Evolve Critical Systems Rethink and reshape core workflows based on a deep understanding of auto repossession and remarketing processes. Design and implement scalable, resilient systems using modern architectural principles: clear service boundaries, modularity, and observability. Incorporate LLMs and AI-driven components to improve data validation, document processing, and operational decision-making. Use AI-assisted and agentic coding tools to accelerate development—while maintaining high st
