E-commerce grows more relevant by the day and you can be part of that growth with Vancouver-based company Elastic Path.

As an e-commerce firm with offices in Canada and the UK, Elastic Path empowers the world’s biggest brands to innovate and make billions of dollars of transactions in the fast-paced digital world. It’s got an API-first enterprise commerce platform that allows companies to act fast and add commerce into any customer experience, across any touch point to maximize engagement and conversion.

Elastic Path’s client base includes Fortune 500 customers from industries as diverse as travel, telecoms, publishing, and software, who each enjoy the benefits of an open, flexible, and modular architecture that drives brand-defining customer experiences, facilitates business agility, and eliminates the need for sales channel silos.

Why you’ll want to work there

For starters, working for Elastic Path gives you flexible work hours and remote work options. The team-orientated office is where staff do highly innovative, impactful work with leading-edge technology, while also enjoying a casual and highly social environment.

And if leadership development is important to you, Elastic Path has you covered as they offer development programs for all employees. Annually, the company gives each employee five days off and a $1,500 annual budget to go towards things like conferences, workshops or coaching sessions.  This gives you the opportunity to strengthen your skills as a professional.

Elastic Path also focuses on providing employee recognition and understands that everyone has different needs when it comes to compensation and that a tailored approach is needed to get that critical piece of the employee experience right. The company’s focus is on enabling intrinsic motivation so their people can enjoy, and do their best work every day. At Elastic Path, it’s about being better than you were yesterday.

Benefits of working at Elastic Path

All benefit offerings are based on employee location, whether you’re working in Canada, the US, or the UK, and all benefit packages are also in line with what is expected in the respective markets.

As an Elastic Path team member in Canada, you’ll get to embrace some pretty incredible perks. This includes a $1,000 annual health and/or lifestyle spending account (FYI, you can use this for a ski pass, new laptop, manicures, or even a tattoo if you want to).

And that’s just the start. You’ll also get three weeks paid vacation annually if you’re full-time, a transit pass, full MSP coverage, health and dental, RRSP matching, as well as long/short-term disability insurance.

When you’re in the office, you can enjoy eating in a beautiful kitchen space and using the free on-site fitness facility (including towel service) where there’s also bike storage. Drink all the coffee you want (americanos, lattes, or cappuccinos) thanks to the office espresso machines and snack on fresh fruit that’s delivered weekly.

To top it all off, the Elastic Path Vancouver office boasts a rooftop patio and lounge with one of the most spectacular views of the city.
