Company Description
Workleap is a Montreal-based tech company, founded in 2006. We're builders at heart, we make simple products that actually matter to the people who use them. We have two product lines: The Workleap Agent, our agentic HR platform that helps managers become better leaders, and ShareGate, the world's leading solution for Microsoft 365 migration and governance. More than 15,000 companies worldwide trust us to do exactly that. We're intentional about who joins us. If you're the kind of person who gets excited by a hard problem and wants to help shape what comes next, there's a place for you here.
Your role
You'll play a founding role on the Web Experience team, whose mission is to build a brand-new web application for ShareGate Migrate, almost from scratch. The goal is to make the Microsoft 365 migration experience even more accessible and intuitive, directly in the browser. This role exists now because we're laying the technical foundations and user experience of a product that will directly impact thousands of IT professionals around the world — and we're looking for someone comfortable across both front-end and backend, with a natural strength on the front.
Your impact:
- Set the experience quality bar for the new web app from the very first milestones by shipping rich, performant, and accessible interfaces;
- Accelerate the delivery of every feature by turning the Product Designer's mockups into reusable, well-structured, and consistent components;
- Lay solid, lasting front-end foundations from day one by contributing to architecture decisions that hold up at scale;
- Ensure frictionless authentication and migration scenarios in production by reliably integrating Microsoft APIs (Microsoft Graph, Azure AD / Entra ID, MSAL) on the client side;
- Raise the team's collective technical level through code reviews, knowledge sharing, and a front-end testing culture that lets everyone ship with confidence;
- Leverage AI coding tools (Claude, GitHub Copilot) to deliver a level of interface quality and output that goes beyond what a solo dev could achieve.
Your team
a) The team is starting a near-greenfield project: building the ShareGate Migrate web application almost from scratch, defining the technical foundations, architecture, and user experience. Over the coming months, you'll bring new web features that complement the migration tool into a fully web-based experience alongside the existing desktop application, and establish reusable technical patterns that accelerate every new feature over time.
b) You'll join the Web Experience team, a cross-functional squad made up of developers, a Product Manager, and a Product Designer, within the ShareGate Migrate department — a collaborative network of teams with access to staff developers for technical guidance and cross-team alignment. The culture leans hard into autonomy and collective decision-making from the very beginning: you won't be handed pre-built solutions, you'll be expected to form hypotheses, experiment quickly, and bring your findings back to the team. AI-assisted development is a core part of how the team works, not an afterthought.
c) Stack: TypeScript, React, and C# / .NET, with Microsoft APIs (Microsoft Graph, Azure AD / Entra ID, MSAL) and AI coding tools (Claude, GitHub Copilot) at the center of the day-to-day.
What you'll bring
- 5+ years of experience delivering commercial software products with strong customer adoption;
- Proven experience building web applications with TypeScript and React, with a strong eye for interface quality, accessibility, and user experience;
- Comfort with backend development in C# / .NET (no need to be an expert, but able to contribute and learn in context);
- Hands-on experience with relational or non-relational databases;
- Hands-on experience using AI coding tools (e.g. Claude, GitHub Copilot, or similar) as part of your day-to-day development workflow;
- Strong debugging and problem-solving skills, with the ability to tackle ambiguous and technically complex challenges;
- Clear, proactive communicator who takes ownership, operates with transparency, and keeps teammates informed (bonus: experience with Microsoft APIs — Microsoft Graph, Azure AD / Entra ID, MSAL).

- RRSP + Family health insurance + telemedicine + annual wellness budget.
- Flexible vacation policy.
- Remote work, with access to our Montreal office.
- In-person gathering twice a year.
- Claude access, for everyone.
What drives us
At Workleap, 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.
