About Embold
Embold runs Creator Programs for Canadian brands, powered by our platform and a network of 12,000+ vetted Canadian creators. Our team operates the platform on behalf of clients. It pulls campaign metrics directly from social networks via API, manages content review, analyzes sentiment, and processes creator payments.
The role
You will own the Embold product from end to end: the platform our team uses every day, the architecture underneath it, and the roadmap ahead. You will report directly to the CEO, which means real ownership and a seat in the decisions that shape the company.
Your users sit down the hall. Campaign managers, creator managers, and finance run programs on this product daily, so you will see what works and what doesn’t without waiting for a survey. You will work with engineers, designer, and our client-facing team to decide what gets built, then make sure it works.
This is an in-office role at our Calgary location.
What you’ll own
- Product vision and roadmap. Decide what gets built, what waits, and what gets cut.
- Platform architecture. Make the call on technical direction alongside our engineers.
- User and stakeholder feedback. Collect it from our internal teams and turn it into clear decisions.
- Delivery. Lead design, development, and planning from idea to release, running sprints and keeping scope honest.
- Quality. Protect the product through testing before and after launch.
What success looks like
- Our team can name the next three things shipping and why they were chosen.
- Releases go out on a predictable cadence, with fewer surprises in production.
- The people who use the platform every day say it is getting better, and can point to what changed.

- 4 to 6 years in a technical role (full-stack engineer, DevOps engineer, QA engineer, or similar)
