Description
Your career is an investment that grows over time!

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, opaque and expensive and make them transparent and low-cost for everyone. We’re the largest fintech company in Canada, with over 3 million users who trust us with more than $40 billion in assets.

Our teams ship often and make an impact with groundbreaking ideas. We're looking for talented people who keep it simple and value collaboration and humility as we continue to create inclusive and high-performing teams where people can be inspired to do their best work.

Team Overviews:

Institutional Transfers: This team owns institutional transfers coming in and out of Wealthsimple - think billions in security, cash, etc. transfers from brokerages and trading platforms like RBC Direct Investing. Our closely-knit team works collaboratively with product, design, marketing and operations teams on deeply technical problems across our full stack (lots of front and backend problems to solve!). There’s so much opportunity to dive deep into our domain - we’re looking for someone passionate about learning new, complex systems, an owner that will improve those systems and communicate strongly with stakeholders along the way. Some tech we use daily: React (TypeScript), Ruby on Rails, GraphQL, Temporal.

Managed Invest: This team is leading the charge in our mission to democratize wealth management. By merging cutting-edge technology with sophisticated investment strategies, we provide personalized wealth management solutions tailored to our clients' needs. We are driven by ambitious goals to enhance the client experience, making it both seamless and enjoyable. We're also developing a new suite of products to offer clients greater choice and control over their investment journeys. Our team is growing rapidly: we're building out specialized areas within our domain. We use a range of advanced technologies daily, including Ruby, React/React Native, GraphQL, Temporal, and Kafka. Collaboration is key, as we engage with various stakeholders—such as advisors, legal experts, compliance officers, investment researchers, product designers, and clients—to refine and perfect our solutions.

Payment Cards: This team is responsible for payment card products, from physical and virtual cards, to in-app experiences to digital wallets to reward systems. We work with leading payment networks, processors, manufacturers, and digital wallets to craft simple, intelligent and rewarding spending experiences for Canadians. We use a range of technologies like Ruby and React native.

App Experience: App Experience is a front-end oriented team focused on delivering a performant and reliable mobile application. The team collaborates closely with other product engineering teams and our front-end platform team, establishing best practices and implementing core app experiences where these are put in to action. When it comes to product development, app experience works on high impact surfaces across the mobile application, think the Home tab. Partnering closely with design, they take an iterative approach to product development, favouring proof of concept and experimental work in code to validate UX and development patterns. The team is predominantly mobile focused, working in react-native, though will operate across the stack to enable high quality application delivery so some Full Stack experience is a bonus.

In this role, you will have the opportunity to:

  • Join a team that has experience growing Wealthsimple into one of the largest FinTech players in Canada, and aims to make Wealthsimple the primary financial institution for Canadians
  • Collaborate with our cross-functional teams of talented software developers, data scientists, product managers, and designers to give Wealthsimple clients delightful web and mobile experiences

  • We host our services on Amazon Web Services and use things like RDS, Aurora, SQS, SNS, S3, Kafka, etc
  • We have amazing infrastructure & security teams

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
