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 Build Platform Team At Wealthsimple, the Build Platform team is on a mission to make developing great software fast, intuitive, and enjoyable. We believe engineers should focus on building incredible features for our clients, not fighting their environment. Our job is to clear the path. We do this by treating our platform as a product.

You will support a diverse engineering organization that uses Ruby, Python, Kotlin, and TypeScript to build the future of finance.

Pioneer new ways to improve developer productivity by leveraging emerging technologies like AI to optimize workflows, improve test coverage and reduce friction in the development lifecycle.

Define and measure operational excellence at scale. You'll help build automated scorecards that give every team clear, actionable insights into the health of their services, covering everything from dependency management to monitoring and scalability.

Elevate our testing infrastructure. You'll get to evolve how our teams test complex systems, such as by building robust backend mocking solutions to increase end-to-end test stability and by enabling isolated testing of asynchronous, event-driven workflows in ephemeral environments.

Champion engineering best practices by partnering with teams across Wealthsimple to deliver platform improvements that increase their velocity and confidence.
