Site Reliability Engineer - Observability

Flinks is where financial data moves—with purpose, trust, and impact.

We're on a mission to simplify access to financial data and help businesses build better, faster, and more secure financial products and experiences. Since 2016, we've been bridging the gap between fintechs, financial institutions, and consumers by enabling seamless, secure data connectivity.

From instant account funding to smarter lending, our solutions help power some of the most innovative financial products in North America. We partner with lenders, banks, and fintechs to streamline onboarding, prevent fraud, and fuel real-time decision-making with enriched, reliable data.

As pioneers in Canada's open banking movement, we're not waiting for the future—we're building it. If you're bold, curious, and ready to help shape the future of finance, we'd love to meet you.
