We’re the largest fintech company in Canada, with over 4 million users who trust us with more than $50 billion in assets.

  • Define and drive design strategy in partnership with Product, Engineering, and Marketing, keeping teams aligned on shared goals.
  • Foster a culture of craft and storytelling, setting a high bar for UX, visual design, and user advocacy.
  • Bring clarity to ambiguity, especially in projects that require cross-functional collaboration or organizational change.
  • Coach and mentor designers, helping them grow their skills and impact.
  • Experiment and innovate, using research, data, and direct client insights to improve features and drive growth.
  • Collaborate closely with product, engineering, and marketing to create seamless, compelling experiences.
  • Scale and resource your team effectively, making sure they have what they need to succeed.
  • Skills we’re looking for

  • Experience managing and growing product designers at all levels.
  • A strong track record designing and building high-growth consumer-facing products.
  • Experience in fast-moving, high-growth environments (bonus points for consumer fintech!).
  • Strong UX, visual design, and communication skills—you know how to craft a great experience and tell the story behind it.
  • Experience working closely with product and engineering in a collaborative environment.
  • Why join us?

  • High-impact role where you’ll shape a critical part of the business and help define how we grow
  • Collaborative, cross-functional environment where design is valued as a key driver of success
