About the Team CLIENTS & ACCOUNTS Join the team responsible for defining the gold standard of financial onboarding in Canada. We are not just building forms; we are transforming a classically painful experience, opening a bank account, into a truly magical and seamless journey. If you are an expert front-end developer who obsesses over meticulous polish and world-class user experience, this is your chance to lead our continued pursuit of excellence.

This role requires a visionary who can deliver significant advances in both cutting-edge UX and robust, extensible frontend architecture. While your focus will be purely on the front-end, comfort with occasionally adjusting adjacent backend code is a valuable asset in maintaining end-to-end efficiency. Requirements: - Expert experience with Typescript, React, React Native, and familiarity with modern frontend state management, testing, and bundling tools. - Experience with native mobile devel
