Pourquoi ce role est-il important?
As a Staff Developer on the Customer Identity team, you will help shape the architecture and evolution of the systems that power authentication, authorization, customer identity, and profile services across Loblaw’s digital ecosystem. You will operate as a technical leader within the domain, partnering with engineering managers, product leaders, and platform teams to design scalable systems and drive technical direction. This role is primarily backend-focused, but we value engineers who are comfortable working across the stack — including API orchestration layers, frontend integrations, and mobile interactions where required. You will work across teams to ensure identity experiences are secure, scalable, reliable, and consistent across web, mobile, and backend systems.
What You'll Do:
Domain & Architecture Leadership
Lead architecture and design of services in the Customer Identity and Customer Profile domains
Define patterns for authentication orchestration, authorization enforcement, and session lifecycle management
Make pragmatic architectural decisions considering security, performance, reliability, and scalability
Partner with platform and security teams to evolve identity capabilities across the organization
Platform & Backend Development
Design and build cloud-native microservices and APIs that power identity services and customer profile capabilities
Build and operate services that integrate with enterprise identity platforms and extend their capabilities through APIs and middleware
Contribute hands-on to complex technical challenges, proof-of-concepts, and critical system improvements
Ensure systems meet high standards for performance, observability, and reliability
Cross-Team Collaboration
Work closely with frontend, mobile, platform, and security teams to deliver cohesive identity experiences
Partner with engineering managers to translate product roadmaps into clear technical execution plans
Participate in architecture reviews and technical planning across multiple teams
Engineering Excellence
Drive improvements in system observability, operational reliability, and performance
Establish best practices for code quality, system design, and maintainability
Identify and address technical debt, platform risks, and scalability challenges early
Mentorship & Technical Leadership
Mentor engineers through design discussions, code reviews, and technical guidance
Support the growth of senior and mid-level engineers within the domain
Contribute to raising engineering standards across the organization
Does this sound like you?
Core Backend & Platform Experience
10+ years of professional software development experience
Strong experience with Java, Kotlin, Go, or similar backend programming languages
Proven experience building distributed, cloud-native microservices
Hands-on experience with event-driven architectures and asynchronous systems
Professional experience with GCP, AWS, or Azure
Experience working with relational and NoSQL databases at scale
Strong understanding of caching strategies (e.g., Redis), including cache invalidation, consistency trade-offs and performance optimization
Proven experience operating observable systems and diagnosing performance, scalability, and reliability issues in production
Identity & Security Experience (Strong Asset)
Experience integrating with enterprise identity providers and also building authentication systems from scratch
Strong understanding of authentication and authorization concepts such as OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, tokens, sessions, scopes, and entitlements
Experience designing identity orchestration layers, middleware, or gateways between clients, identity providers, and backend services
Comfortable working within vendor constraints and extending platforms through configuration, APIs, and custom services
Familiarity with secure session handling, token refresh, logout flows, and cross-application identity consistency
Staff-Level Expectations
You influence technical direction across multiple teams and help align architectural decisions across shared platform services
You take ownership of systems beyond feature delivery, including reliability, scalability, and long-term maintainability
You think in terms of systems and platforms rather than individual services
You are comfortable navigating ambiguity and defining solutions in evolving problem spaces
You proactively identify risks and technical gaps before they become operational issues
You mentor engineers through design reviews, technical guidance, and architecture discussions
You help raise the engineering bar by improving architecture patterns, technical practices, and operational standards across teams
You remain hands-on with the codebase, contributing to complex features, architectural foundations, and critical system improvements
You communicate complex technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Nice to Have
Experience with modern frontend technologies such as React or Next.js
