About the Team
This team builds and maintains the connections that bring external financial data into Wealthsimple. These connections power Transfers, Net Worth, Switch-your-Bank, and other core Wealthsimple experiences.

We’re looking for developers who will define how Wealthsimple will integrate with Open Banking in Canada, and how Wealthsimple will bridge our data acquisition from API integrations and scraping to Open Banking solutions. The work involves collaborating with a broad set of product teams on bank account linking, iterating on different data acquisition methods, and working with product, design, data science, data security, and other engineers and managers to help users make Wealthsimple their financial home

In this role, you'll have the opportunity to:

Experience cutting edge AI use for software development (team-specific Claude plugins, agentic development, LLM integrations that redact sensitive information without degrading functionality)

Build and maintain connections to banks and brokerages in Canada through scraping, custom flows, and direct APIs, transitioning from first and third party aggregators to Open Banking endpoints





Design systems that degrade gracefully without impacting the user experience

Work with product, security, infrastructure, and SRE teams to deliver accurate balances, holdings, and transactions to clients

Our technologies:

Node.js and MongoDB services for scraping and acquisition

Headless browsers, proxy systems, and session-management tools

Ruby, Java/Kotlin, and Python across the broader platform

AWS Infra

Strong encryption and security practices for sensitive data

Early AI-assisted automation that helps generate, maintain, and repair extraction logic

What you bring:

Solid computer science fundamentals, industry experience, and a history of designing systems at scale

Strong experience using AI tools for software development, learning, and sharing ideas

Clear communication with a broad range of cross-functional partners

Nice-to-have's:

Experience with data acquisition or financial connectivity platforms (e.g., Plaid-style APIs, Flinks-style screen scraping, SnapTrade-style brokerage linking)

Experience working on financial data models, reconciliation, or ledger-like systems

Understanding of authentication flows, MFA challenges, cookies, sessions, and rate limits

ICYMI
Technology & Innovation at Wealthsimple: We move quickly and build thoughtfully. That means we're always looking for better ways to work — whether that's new tools, AI, or rethinking how we approach a problem. We don't expect you to have all the answers, but we do expect curiosity and a willingness to evolve alongside the products we're building.

Inclusion Statement: We're building products for a diverse world, and we need a diverse team to do it well. We strongly encourage applications from everyone, regardless of race, religion, colour, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, or disability status.

Accessibility Statement: We're committed to an accessible hiring experience. If you need any accommodations throughout the interview process, please let us know — we'll work with you to make sure you have what you need. We also welcome any feedback on how we can better accommodate candidates with accessibility needs.

AI in Hiring: We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of our hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses. These tools assist our team but don't replace human judgment – all final hiring decisions are made by people. If you have questions about how your data is used, reach out to us.
