ShareGate is the leading Microsoft 365 migration and governance platform, trusted by over 100,000 IT pros for its unmatched simplicity.
It offers the simplest, most reliable, and most affordable way to move business data to Microsoft 365.
Whether migrating from Google Workspace, file shares, Exchange Online, SharePoint On-Premises, or tenant-to-tenant, ShareGate gets the job done, without surprises. From cloud transformation to M&A integration, it keeps things just damn simple.
ShareGate also helps organizations stay in control once their data is migrated. Its powerful governance features let users assess environments, uncover issues, and apply fixes on the spot, so everything stays clean, secure, and optimized. It lays the groundwork for safe Microsoft Copilot deployment within organizations.
ShareGate is developed by Workleap Technologies, a Montréal‑based software company.
So, what will your new role look like?
You'll play a founding role on the Web Experience team, whose mission is to build a brand-new web application for ShareGate Migrate from scratch. The goal is to make the Microsoft 365 migration experience even more accessible and intuitive, directly in the browser. As a developer on this team, you'll help define the technical foundations and user experience of a product that will have a direct impact on thousands of IT professionals around the world.
Responsibilities:
- Ship full-stack features that meet the team's quality and UX standards from the first milestones of the new web app.
- Deliver simple, well-crafted user experiences that solve real user problems, built in close partnership with your Product Manager and Product Designer.
- Lay solid and lasting technical foundations from day one by contributing meaningfully to architecture decisions and team engineering practices.
- Integrate Microsoft APIs (Microsoft Graph, Azure AD / Entra ID, MSAL) reliably so migration and authentication scenarios work without friction in production.
- Build a quality culture from the start by establishing testing practices that let the team ship with confidence.
- Grow the team's collective level through code reviews and knowledge sharing that make others better.
- Leverage AI coding tools (Claude, GitHub Copilot) to deliver a level of quality and output that goes beyond what a solo dev could achieve otherwise.
A typical week?
You'll contribute across the full product development lifecycle:
- Exploring product needs and technical constraints through research, prototyping, and collaboration with the team, using AI tools to accelerate discovery.
- Delivering features that move the product forward in a visible way, week after week.
- Collaborating daily with teammates and product partners through standups, design discussions, and async communication.
- Sharing learnings with the broader ShareGate Migrate engineering organization as the team uncovers new technical patterns.
What does your future team look like?
You'll join the Web Experience team, a cross-functional squad made up of developers, a Product Manager, and a Product Designer. The team is part of the ShareGate Migrate department, a collaborative network of teams with access to staff developers for technical guidance and cross-team alignment.
The team is starting a greenfield project, which means a strong culture of 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. Hands-on experience with AI coding tools and a mindset oriented toward getting the most out of them are expected.
What are the next challenges awaiting your team?
- Building the ShareGate Migrate web application almost from scratch, defining the technical foundations, architecture, and user experience.
- Bring new web features that complement the migration tool into a fully web-based experience, complementary to the existing desktop application.
- Establishing reusable technical patterns that will accelerate the development of each new feature over time.
- 3+ years of experience delivering commercial software products with strong customer adoption;
- Proven experience building web applications with TypeScript and React;
- Demonstrated hands-on experience with relational or non-relational databases;
- Solid backend development skills in C# / .NET;
- 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;
- Experience with Microsoft APIs (Microsoft Graph, Azure AD / Entra ID, MSAL) is an asset.
