ABOUT THE BUSINESS BANKING TEAM

The Business Banking team is one of our newest and most exciting teams. We are rethinking small business banking from the ground up to become the only place a Canadian entrepreneur would want to have their money. The team is responsible for building a business banking the Wealthsimple way - simple, transparent, and low-cost.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Help define the product vision and strategy, and define and own roadmap initiatives for the Business Banking team.

• Lead planning, development, launch and experimentation with the goal of shipping best in class features that our clients love.

• Continue to follow features post-launch and design and implement improvements that will increase usage and adoption, based on quantitative results.

• Develop a deep understanding of the competitive landscape of business banking in Canada, and best-in-class global comps.

• Develop a deep understanding of all elements of business banking including payments, expense management, borrowing, cards, and others.

• Contribute to financial modeling and growth modeling to assess product performance and project future growth.

• Use all tools available to build client understanding and empathy, and understand how to continue to develop our product to serve clients better.

• Help develop best-in-class systems and tools to improve the client experience and product uptake across all stages of the business lifecycle.

• Support a cross-functional team of engineers, designers, and data scientists.

• Partner with other engineering teams and departments across the company (e.g. Marketing, Operations, Legal and Compliance, and more) to build compliant, efficient, and industry-leading products and features.

• Help elevate the Product Management practice at Wealthsimple and create an inclusive and supportive team culture.

SKILLS YOU BRING

• A multi-year track record of building and shipping products that customers love. You’ve owned a complete product or large parts of an offering and are comfortable leading large cross-functional projects with significant technical complexity (e.g., a system re-architecture, a major data migration, etc.).

• Experience with small business and B2B products / services. Bonus if you’ve operated a small business before.

• A shipping mentality. We don't believe in spending forever analyzing and debating. The best way to validate something is to ship it — so let's ship it, learn, and iterate.

• Enough technical know-how to talk with engineers about architecture and technical considerations that impact product, and a desire to learn what you don’t know to help drive decision making.

• A passion for financial inclusion and building products that increase access to financial freedom for everyone.

• Experience with AI tools and a strong POV on what AI tools are most effective for Product Managers.

• Bonus: Experience building, shipping, iterating and growing products from 0 to 1 over multiple years.

WHO YOU ARE

• A systems thinker that can distill many use-cases into a simple, elegant, generic logical solution design.

• A strong technical partner who is comfortable working with engineering to translate a logical system design into a technical architecture design.

• Able to navigate uncertainty and ambiguity and adept at synthesizing actionable problems, insights, and requirements from raw, unstructured qualitative and quantitative data.

• A thoughtful, critical thinker who follows a systematic and rigorous approach to problem solving.

• Scrappy and comfortable flexing into different roles to support your team. For example:

  • Business model and business case development

  • Workflow and operational process development

  • Negotiation with external vendors, regulatory bodies, and more

  • Project management

• An excellent communicator that can convey complex ideas succinctly and clearly.

• A naturally collaborative and empathetic leader; comfortable working with a diverse group of stakeholders, making sure every voice is heard.

• Passionate about creating simple and elegant user-experiences. You can’t help but critique the UX of the apps you use.
