Front End Platform Developer

About Borrowell:

At Borrowell, we’re on a mission to help Canadians feel confident about their money. We empower individuals to take control of their financial futures by providing the tools and insights needed to understand, build, and use their credit effectively.

1 in 10 Canadians use Borrowell for comprehensive credit monitoring and personalized insights. Our innovative services, including Credit Builder and rent reporting, help consumers build credit so they can unlock access to a wider range of financial products at more competitive rates. Additionally, we offer personalized financial product recommendations from Canada’s most trusted providers based on each member’s credit profile and financial goals.

This role is within Borrowell's Frontend Platform team, focused on building the foundational components to support product teams. Unlike a typical product role, you won’t just be building features; you will be a force multiplier for the entire engineering organization.

The role involves cross‑functional collaboration with Product, Design, Engineering, Data and QA teams across the company. With an increasing percentage of our members preferring mobile to web, you will see how your efforts make an immediate, lasting impact on helping our members achieve financial stability.
