About the teamThe Complex Accounts team builds the accounts that don't fit a standard mould. We own how businesses, from sole proprietorships to corporations with layered ownership, open and manage their accounts with Wealthsimple, along with joint accounts and registered education savings plans (RESPs). As we expand into more account types, the list keeps growing. It's work where accuracy, security, and regulatory requirements are non-negotiable, and we partner closely with operations, compliance, design, and product to make complicated financial structures feel simple for the people using them. We’re part of Data & Engineering, where quality, security, and scalability are the standard, not trade-offs.

Experience modelling complex domains and designing systems that handle sensitive data, including authentication, fine-grained authorization, and auditability
