GLAD YOU ASKED... Pelmorex (The Weather Network / MétéoMédia) reaches millions of Canadians every day and operates one of the country's most trusted information services, including the Alert Ready emergency alerting system. Our newly formed AI & Data Solutions team exists to turn that scale, data, and trust into a competitive advantage across three fronts: empowering our workforce with AI, building custom AI solutions for the business, and monetizing our data. This is an early, ground-floor role on a small, high-leverage team. You'll have an unusually direct line of sight from the code you write to the business outcomes it drives, and the latitude to shape how AI gets built and shipped across the company.  Be part of the team that takes working prototypes to production quality. We are building active AI tools powering key workflows for both internal partners and external customers requiring robust, production-grade systems complete with resilient infrastructure, automated guardrails, enterprise fallbacks, and end-user support. You will own the end-to-end production path for approved products, shipping high-impact services one launch at a time by swapping demo shortcuts for reliable engineering standards that can scale. This is a software development and infrastructure role that leverages multi-modal LLM APIs (text, image, and video). We expect you to leverage AI natively to architect, test, and ship modern production systems - identifying bottlenecks, setting higher benchmarks, and continuously raising the bar.   Please note, that is is a 12 month contract role and we are only considering candidates who are eligible to work in Canada and can work in a Hybrid model at our Oakville location.
