Software Engineer Co-Op

Giffen Consulting · Vancouver, British Columbia · $41,600 annually

Verdict

Giffen Consulting is a real Canadian engineering firm (mining/utilities/heavy industry) headquartered at 320 Granville St, Vancouver. They appear on Canada's Top Growing Companies 2024 list (Globe and Mail). However, their core business is engineering services (CAD, project management, infrastructure digitalization) — not software development. A Software Engineer Co-Op posting is adjacent but not a natural fit for a 30-person engineering consultancy. They use BambooHR at giffenconsulting.bamboohr.com, which is a legitimate ATS sign. The salary ($41,600/yr) is low but plausible for a co-op. Overall low-to-moderate concern; the ATS usage significantly legitimizes the posting.
