TORONTO — Tucows, a Toronto-based provider of wholesale Internet services including domain name registration and owner of Ting Mobile (which operates Stateside), announced Monday it is hiring more than 50 people to work remotely in roles throughout the organization, including software engineering, operations, marketing and front-line customer service roles.
Tucows says it is looking to bring on more staff to support and expand global demand for its services, amid the uncertainty caused by the Covid-19 pandemic and economic downturn, according to the news release.
The company and its brands, which include OpenSRS, Enom, EPAG, Ascio, Hover, Ting Mobile, Ting Internet and others, insources all of its engineering, marketing, sales and customer support functions with its primary operations located in Canada. Tucows is looking to hire a broad spectrum of talent to help maintain its industry-leading customer satisfaction, the release says.
“This is a great opportunity for people to continue their career in software development or start a career in marketing or customer service. While Tucows is a technical company by nature, we’re looking for great people with a positive outlook first and foremost. If you have that, we can train and teach the rest,” said chief customer experience officer Ross Rader, in the release.
As social distancing rules continue, Tucows is leveraging its existing virtual workspace infrastructure to operate remotely, managing recruitment, onboarding and training entirely online to connect with talent from around the world.
“We are fortunate and grateful to be in a position where we can hire when so many are forced to take the opposite approach,” added chief people officer Jessica Johannson. “While this is obviously a very challenging event for so many, we’re pleased to be able to help people find a home at Tucows. We invite anyone, especially anyone whose employment status has been impacted by recent events, to consider our career opportunities on workattucows.com.”
