Job Title

Summary Sol Invictus Energy Services is hiring a junior software developer for a full-time, 12-month innovation placement on Energy Navigator - our energy-modelling and compliance platform for Alberta's residential and small-commercial building sector. Working alongside our technical lead, you will take ownership of a meaningful share of day-to-day product development: new features, performance and reliability improvements, and extensions to our calculator, document-extraction, and reporting pipelines. As needed you will also help process and review data for an energy reporting / compliance project. Optional secondary work: support our SOC 2 readiness effort (documentation and evidence - not formal audit). This role is supported through the NRC IRAP Youth Employment Program. Context what the coding work looks like today Front end: React 18 + TypeScript on Vite; React Router; TanStack Query for server state and TanStack Table for grids; Tailwind CSS with shadcn/ui + Radix primitives; React Hook Form + Zod for forms; Recharts for charts and Leaflet/ReactLeaflet for maps; jsPDF-driven PDF UIs. Back end & data: PostgreSQL via Supabase SQL migrations, RLS policies, RPCs, keeping client types aligned with the database. Serverless: Supabase Edge Functions (TypeScript on Deno) document-processing pipelines (external extractors JSON patches into project_summaries / energy_insights), PDF generation, transactional email, Dropbox hooks. Domain & quality: building / envelope / mechanical fields tied to compliance and reporting; debugging real-upload edge cases; validation and user-visible error handling. Tooling: Git, ESLint, pnpm, Vite, environment config, careful pre-merge testing. Core stack is TypeScript / JavaScript, SQL, Supabase. Python is useful for City-side batch CSV / notebook QA and small CLI glue secondary, not the main repo language. What you will do 1. Product & engineering primary (~7085%) Implement features and bugfixes end-to-end across UI, API, database, and Edge Functions. Progressively own recurring development tasks the technical lead does today (with pairing and handoff). Extend calculator / compliance flows so data from uploads and models is correct, complete, and explainable. Improve reliability: validation, empty states, performance of heavy tables, safe handling of malformed documents. 2. Municipal Project data process & review (~1025%, varies) Ingest, clean, reconcile, and review datasets / model outputs used for City-aligned reporting or QA. Cross-check numbers and assumptions against source files (HOT2000 / energy reports, spreadsheets, City reference calculators). Build or run small scripts (TypeScript, Python, or spreadsheets) to automate repetitive checks and flag anomalies. Communicate findings in plain language for non-developer stakeholders. 3. SOC 2 readiness optional (~515%) Maintain control evidence (tickets, screenshots, access lists, vendor list); draft internal how-we-work notes under direction. What we are looking for Required - Recent post-secondary graduate (degree, diploma, or certificate) in software development, computer science, software engineering, or a closely related program typically graduated within the IRAP youth eligibility window. - Aged 1530 at start of placement, Canadian citizen, permanent resident, or person with refugee/protected status, and a first-time participant in a Youth Employment and Skills Strategy (YESS) program targeted at post-secondary graduates (NRC IRAP requirement). - Available full-time (30 hrs/week, target 37.5) for a 12-month placement, working remotely from Alberta. - Strong TypeScript and React (hooks, component composition, async data, controlled forms); comfortable in a Vite-based codebase. - Solid SQL (reads, writes, joins, relational thinking, basic schema migrations). - Practical experience with at least one modern UI toolkit for us that is Tailwind CSS with shadcn/ui + Radix primitives, plus React Hook Form + Zod for forms. - Git discipline (feature branches, meaningful commits, pull requests, code review). - Ownership and communication: breaks down scoped tasks, reads unfamiliar code, asks early when blocked, and writes clear notes for technical and non-technical readers. Preferred Supabase (Auth, Postgres, Edge Functions) or analogous BaaS + Postgres stacks. Vite, Zod, Tailwind, TanStack Query / Table. Python for data QA scripts or notebooks (pandas, openpyxl). Interest in building codes, EnerGuide / HOT2000-adjacent workflows, or municipal energy programs. Preference will be given to PR/Citizens/Refugees and applicants under 30y/o due to funding How to apply Send resume + GitHub or portfolio + a short note on one complex React or data project to [email protected]. Subject: Junior Developer Energy Navigator. Open-ended role with a target start of Summer 2026 (June). -
