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 4 million users who trust us with more than $70 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.
About the team
Design is a strategic lever at Wealthsimple — we don’t just make things beautiful, we help shape what gets built. We're growing our Product Design team and hiring both Senior and Staff Product Designers across multiple product areas, including Investing, Banking, and more. Rather than filling a single role, we’re looking for outstanding designers who want to help us define the future of personal finance in Canada. When you apply, we’ll explore where your strengths, experience, and interests align best across our teams.
In this role, you’ll have the opportunity to:
- Design thoughtful, high-impact product experiences that empower clients to make smarter financial decisions
- Partner closely with product, engineering, content, and research throughout the entire product development process
- Own the full design stack — from early discovery and prototyping to high-fidelity visuals and micro-interactions
- Conduct research and use data to understand client needs, identify opportunities, and inform design decisions
- Help evolve our design system and scale the product with consistency, craft, and intention
- Raise the bar for quality and clarity — not just in your own work, but across the team
What you’ll bring:
- Experience designing for consumer-facing mobile apps (React Native, native iOS/Android)
- Strong UX and visual design skills, with the ability to turn complex problems into simple, elegant experiences
- A user-first mindset and a strong product sense — you know when to sweat the details and when to move quickly
- A collaborative approach and clear communication style
- Experience working closely with product and engineering teams to ship real products
- A passion for personal finance, and an interest in banking, investing, or financial planning tools
- For Senior Designers: a track record of shipping high-quality, impactful work end-to-end
- For Staff Designers: experience leading large initiatives, mentoring others, and driving design quality and strategy at a higher level
If you’re excited to be part of Wealthsimple's mission, please apply with your resume and a portfolio that demonstrate:
- How you’ve tackled ambiguous product challenges and found clarity
- Your process and rationale behind design decisions
- Your impact on the product and business
- How you’ve used insights to advocate for client needs
