It lays the groundwork for safe Microsoft Copilot deployment within organizations.
ShareGate is developed by Workleap Technologies, a Montréal‑based software company.
Your role
You'll help build a brand-new product from the ground up: a greenfield, backend-heavy system where you'll design both the cloud services and the agent software that runs directly on customer machines. The product handles device migration at ShareGate, but you don't need to know that domain going in, we'll get you up to speed. What matters is that you like owning real backend problems and laying solid foundations while a lot is still being defined.
Your impact:
- Build the agent that migrates devices between tenants, so customers get a reliable, friction-free transition on their workstations.
- Ship the APIs and Azure cloud services that connect the agent to the ShareGate platform, securely and at scale.
- Lay the technical foundations of a greenfield product, taking part in the architecture decisions that will hold up long term.
- Move between the two areas as team priorities shift, delivering where the impact is greatest.
- Bring AI tools (Claude, Claude Code) into your daily development work to speed up delivery and raise code quality.
Your team
We're standing up a brand-new team. The next 6 to 12 months: lay the technical foundations, ship a secure MVP to a small set of partner customers, then iterate fast toward general availability. The ambition is to make it a core pillar of ShareGate's offering.
The work spans the software that runs on devices and the cloud-side services. You'll start on one side, with room to move to the other as priorities shift. You'll work alongside a staff developer, a senior developer, and a Developer I, with a product manager and designer already in place. We live in Slack, make decisions fast, and course-correct even faster. You'll report to a software development manager focused on supporting your growth.
On the tech side: a backend in .NET (C#), cloud services on Azure, and the agent that runs on devices. All backed by solid tooling, automated CI/CD pipelines, and strong engineering standards.
What you'll bring
- 3 to 5 years of software development experience, with solid command of C#/.NET on the backend;
- Experience with Azure and CI/CD pipelines;
- Experience designing and consuming APIs;
- Solid expertise in automated testing (unit and broader tests);
- A builder mindset: autonomy and the drive to lay foundations, even when things aren't fully defined yet;
- Comfort with AI tools (Claude, Claude Code) to speed up your work;
- Strong communication, curiosity, and a collaborative approach;
- Bonus: experience building agents, background services, or daemons that run on devices or servers;
- Bonus: React experience, for a bit of frontend;
- Bonus: knowledge of identity systems or the Microsoft ecosystem (Active Directory, Entra ID, Graph SDK, MSAL).

What drives us
We build software that sits at the center of how people experience work, every day, at every level.
We move fast. Priorities shift, decisions get made with the information we have, and we iterate. If you thrive on intensity and ambiguity doesn't slow you down, you'll feel right at home.
We're builders. We do what it takes to move forward. AI is part of our toolkit. We use it to go faster and decide smarter, not to replace judgment.
If you want real impact and a place where your decisions matter, this is it.
How we hire
Transparency is how we hire — for you as much as for us.
Here's how it works: a first call with a recruiter, then a virtual interview with the hiring manager. You'll then complete a take-home case study, followed by a meet with future colleagues to discuss it together. Depending on the role, the process may vary slightly — your recruiter will walk you through it on your first call.
We use AI to support certain steps of the process, but every hiring decision remains human.
We can't wait to meet you.
