IT Developer Associate – Job Description

About the Role

Centrum Concierge & Security Ltd. is looking for an IT Developer Associate to join our development team and help shape new tech initiatives and products — including web apps and their companion mobile apps (React Native via Expo), integrated with modern cloud services and CI/CD pipelines.

This role is about helping push our development team forward — working closely with our lead developer on architecture, feature delivery, and meeting deadlines, while also helping bridge IT/automation needs across the wider organization and its affiliated companies.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and maintain features across our web app and our React Native / Expo mobile app, working in TypeScript
• Use AI coding agents as part of a spec-driven development workflow — writing clear specs and documentation before and alongside implementation
• Keep the web and mobile apps consistent in behavior, data models, and UX where it makes sense to share logic
• Maintain and improve CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions), including automated tests (e.g. Playwright)
• Instrument code with solid error logging and observability (Sentry), and act on what it surfaces
• Work with Supabase and Vercel for backend, database, and deployment needs

Write and optimize SQL queries, and work confidently with relational databases as part of everyday feature development

• Follow solid object-oriented and modular design practices (DRY, scalable architecture) to keep the codebase maintainable as it grows
• Support automation workflows and IT needs across the wider organization and its affiliated companies, including some Microsoft 365 / end-user support

Required Qualifications

• Spec-driven development: 1+ years developing software with AI agents, primarily in TypeScript and its frameworks, including writing documentation, solid Git practices, a strong grasp of object-oriented design, and modular, scalable system design following the DRY principle
• Mobile app development: 1+ years building iOS and Android apps with React Native through the Expo framework, keeping feature parity and consistency with a corresponding web app
• DevOps, logging, and testing: 1+ years with GitHub Actions and/or GitLab Runners for CI/CD pipelines, including test workflows (e.g. Playwright); a habit of prioritizing error logging and visibility (e.g. with Sentry) so issues are caught and actionable

Preferred Qualifications

• Server management & networking: Hands-on experience with Linux, Docker containers, and self-hosted open-source services
• Cybersecurity & privacy standards: Knowledge of secure development practices without sacrificing speed — familiarity with the OWASP Top 10, iOS/Android security best practices, and PIPEDA compliance, including tools on the end user aspect like XDRs, phishing campaigns and MDMs
• Microsoft ecosystem: Comfortable assisting with Microsoft 365 automation and bridging gaps with end users; an MS-900 and/or MS-700 certification is a nice addition
