Who are we

We are a rapidly growing B2B SaaS company helping small businesses compete with the giants. Our powerful, yet easy to use software and hardware solve a problem that’s often overlooked: inventory management.

Since 2007, we’ve been bootstrapped, stable, and successful. We began by dominating the desktop inventory software market with over a million downloads, and since 2017 we’ve transitioned to the cloud and mobile unlocking new possibilities and accelerating our growth.

We do our absolute best to show respect and compassion to customers, employees, and job applicants, and people tell us that Archon is an amazing place to work. You can check us out on Glassdoor, Deloitte Technology Fast 500, our website, or what to expect when applying for a job.

We’ve got an amazing group of talented and friendly people here, and we’re looking for world class talent, like you, to join us!

Hybrid work - one day/week in the office

We know that in the software industry, you can get most of your day-to-day work done outside of an office. We value the freedom and flexibility that comes from being able to work from home; in fact, we’ve been pioneers in mostly-working-from-home for over a decade, waaaay before it was cool.

We also believe that it’s important to be able to build real human connections (dare I say, friendships?) with your co-workers, and that there’s no substitute for in-person bonding time for this. These connections (friendships?) build trust and encourage open and honest conversations; they’re good for business AND good for well-being.

That’s why we will be requiring that employees work one day per week (typically) in our beautiful Toronto office, with this in-person time focused on team gatherings, monthly free lunches, and other activities that are best done in-person. Other days, you’re free to work from home, the office, or any productive environment.

• Subsidized internet and phone plans
• Make a difference: you'll be the 67th member of our tight-knit team
