WHY WE NEED YOU? GLAD YOU ASKED...
At Pelmorex, we are on a mission to revolutionize weather and environment based
decision support for businesses and consumers alike. We are looking for a
visionary engineering leader to architect, build, and operate the
high-performance data platform that will serve as the engine for our entire
company's future growth and innovation. You will lead the team responsible for
ingesting, processing, and serving all gridded global datasets—from
meteorological forecasts to pollen and air quality levels. This platform is not
just a backend system; it's the foundation upon which we will build our next
generation of B2B decision-support products and hyper-personalized B2C features,
directly impacting our profitability and market leadership.
The Opportunity: Build a Startup, Backed by an Enterprise
This is a rare opportunity to get the best of both worlds. You'll lead a small,
entrepreneurial team within our fast-growing B2B division, which has ambitious
goals to grow X% year-over-year. You will have the autonomy and greenfield
opportunity to innovate, experiment, and build with the speed and agility of a
startup.
Simultaneously, you'll be backed by the resources, data assets, and stability of
a 30-year industry leader. The platform you build won't just be for a startup;
it will be adopted company-wide, powering personalization for millions of B2C
users. We need a leader who can leverage their "Startup Scrappiness" to drive
innovation and speed, while applying their "Enterprise Polish" to build a
platform that is scalable, reliable, and cost-efficient enough for our entire
business.
Please note we are only considering candidates who are eligible to work in
Canada and are currently located in the Greater Toronto Area.
