Senior Backend Engineer, .NET & Python

PosiTrace builds a real-time GPS fleet tracking SaaS platform -- vehicle location, telemetry processing, reporting, dispatching, and fleet management tools for SMB and enterprise customers across Canada and Mexico.

Our backend processes millions of GPS data points daily across multiple receiver protocols.

We're migrating toward MACH (Microservices, API-first, Cloud-native, Headless) and need a senior backend engineer to co-own that evolution.

This is a full-time, on-site position at our Burnaby, BC headquarters.

Not available for remote or hybrid.

• Build and maintain backend services in .NET 8 / C# and Python (FastAPI, Dramatiq workers, Dask data pipelines)

• Work directly on core platform systems: GPS telemetry ingestion, history processing, reporting engine, dispatching services, billing and subscription management
• Write and review production-grade, test-driven code; enforce quality through code reviews across .NET and Python codebases
• Design and optimize MySQL queries and schemas for high-volume transactional workloads (10M+ row tables, complex joins across billing/device/contract hierarchies)
• Build and consume RESTful APIs; design webhook delivery systems and event-driven integrations
• Deploy to production via BitBucket Pipelines, Docker, and Kubernetes (GKE) with zero-downtime rolling updates
• Produce architecture documentation: system diagrams, data flow diagrams, ADRs in Confluence
• Manage async job processing with RabbitMQ and Dramatiq/Delayed Job workers
• Operate within Google Cloud Platform: GKE, Cloud SQL, Cloud Storage, Secret Manager, BigQuery
• Collaborate with the Rails team, DevOps, and QA; work with the Engineering Team Lead and VP of Engineering on technical direction
