Build something people love

Wealthsimple is on a mission to help everyone achieve financial freedom by reimagining what it means to manage your money. Using smart technology, we take financial services that are often confusing and expensive and make them transparent and low-cost for everyone. We’re the largest fintech company in Canada, with 3+ million users who trust us with more than $100 billion in assets. And we’re just getting started.

We’re looking for someone who thinks big, sweats the small stuff and keeps things simple. You’ll join a high-bar, fast-paced team where people are trusted to own their work, communicate openly, and ship things that improve our clients’ lives. Collaboration, humility, and an obsession over quality are how we get stuff done.

Be a part of our Canadian success story and help shape the financial future of millions. Read our Culture Manual and learn more about how we work.

Hey Canadian leaders abroad…it’s time

You’ve built remarkable things. Led AI teams in San Francisco, scaled fintechs in New York, designed next-gen platforms in Boston. But what if the next big thing isn’t there - it’s here? At Wealthsimple, we’re on a mission to help millions of people achieve financial freedom through simple, powerful, and accessible tools. We're building one of the most ambitious and meaningful tech companies in Canada, and we’re looking for world-class Canadian talent to come home and help us build what’s next.

Change the game, for Canada

Canada has urgent problems to solve, and real momentum. The work is complex, the scale is real and the impact will be felt by millions of people everyday - your family members, friends, and even your kindergarten teacher. Canada is at a turning point. We’re seeing real momentum in our tech ecosystem, and we need experienced leaders who know how to build at scale. It’s more than just a job. It’s about joining a mission: building products that empower millions of people and creating pathways to financial freedom.

Who we're looking for:

  • Engineering (AI, infrastructure, backend, frontend, mobile)

  • Product & Design (Platform design, fintech innovation, user-centric systems)

  • Data & Machine Learning (ML engineers, data scientists, real-time analytics)

  • Finance & Strategy (Investor relations, strategic finance, capital markets)

  • Leadership roles (VP and Director level across R&D, Product, Strategy, and Ops)

Whether you’re a technical trailblazer, a product visionary, or a builder of high-performance teams, if you’ve led at the frontier and want to make a dent in Canada, we want to talk.

What happens next:

1. Submit your resume and a few quick answers. This helps us connect you with the right people.

2. We’ll reach out. Not with a bot, but a real human from Wealthsimple.

3. We’ll set up a casual chat if there is a role that fits. Think of it as a human conversation, not a formal interview.

4. If there’s a fit, we’ll introduce you to a senior leader from our team.

5. Once everything aligns, congratulations. You’re coming home to build.
