Architect. Lead. Ship. From Anywhere. 🚀

At Fintex Inc., we're not just writing code—we're rewriting the rules of wealth management. We're a zero-to-one startup that's already partnered with Canada's financial giants, and we're moving at a pace that would make most companies dizzy. Founded this year, we've proven our concept. Now we're scaling fast, and we need mobile leaders who can build world-class experiences while working from wherever they do their best work.

This is your chance to be a founding technical leader at a company that's actually going somewhere—without leaving your home office.

The Mission

We're looking for someone who can lead our iOS (UIKit & SwiftUI) and Android (Jetpack Compose) teams while still getting their hands dirty with code.

This role is part team leadership, part solution design, part hands-on development. You'll work closely with our architecture team and directly with some of Canada's biggest financial institutions on wealth tech platforms.

The setup: Remote-first. Real technical challenges. Growing team with actual impact.

You'll see your work go live fast. We ship to production constantly, and your decisions will directly impact products in the hands of major banks' customers.

What You'll Build & Lead

• Architect mobile experiences from the ground up—design scalable, performant iOS and Android applications that deliver institutional-grade reliability with consumer-grade polish
• Own end-to-end mobile delivery for complex features, coordinating across teams and ensuring seamless integration with backend services, payment systems, and third-party platforms
• Make the hard calls on technology choices, framework updates, and architectural patterns—you'll evaluate native vs. cross-platform approaches, state management solutions, and emerging mobile technologies
• Write production code daily in Swift, Kotlin, or your cross-platform framework of choice—this isn't a hands-off role; you'll be building high-performance, battle-tested mobile apps alongside your team
• Debug the impossible, troubleshooting complex issues across devices, OS versions, and network conditions to deliver flawless user experiences
• Champion mobile excellence—establish best practices for performance optimization, security, accessibility, and seamless offline functionality
• Mentor and elevate the engineering team, conducting rigorous code reviews and raising the bar on quality, design patterns, and mobile-specific best practices

What You Bring to the Table

The Must-Haves

• 5+ years of mobile development experience—you've shipped apps that real users love and depend on
• Deep expertise in iOS (UIKit & SwiftUI) or Android (Jetpack Compose)—you know your platform inside-out and can guide teams on both legacy and modern UI approaches
• Strong architectural thinking—you understand MVVM, Clean Architecture, and know how to structure apps that scale and remain maintainable
• API integration mastery—you've built apps that communicate seamlessly with RESTful services, handle authentication flows, and manage complex data synchronization
• Performance obsession—you know how to profile, optimize, and deliver buttery-smooth 60fps experiences
• Security mindset—you understand mobile security best practices, secure storage, certificate pinning, and what it takes to protect financial data
• Communication superpowers—you can explain complex technical decisions to non-technical stakeholders and translate business requirements into elegant mobile solutions
• Team leadership DNA—you collaborate naturally, elevate those around you, and know how to balance speed with quality
• Self-driven and remote-ready—you thrive with autonomy and know how to stay productive and connected while working remotely

The Game-Changers

• Cross-platform experience with React Native or Flutter—if you can deliver quality across both platforms efficiently, you'll have massive impact
• Full-stack capabilities—comfort with backend technologies means you can unblock yourself and collaborate more effectively
• Fintech or regulated industry experience—you understand the unique challenges of building financial applications
• Startup experience—you've built things from scratch before and understand the unique challenges of early-stage growth

Why This Role is Different

Most "lead" positions at big companies mean endless meetings, office politics, and mandatory desk time. Here's what makes this different:

✅ 100% Remote - Work from anywhere in Canada. We care about what you ship, not where you sit

✅ Startup energy, enterprise impact - Move fast while building apps used by major financial institutions

✅ Real ownership - Your architectural decisions will define our mobile platform for years

✅ Direct impact - Ship features that land in millions of users' hands

✅ Cutting-edge tech - Work with AI, biometrics, real-time payments, and emerging mobile technologies

✅ Career rocket fuel - This role can evolve into VP of Engineering, Head of Mobile, or whatever you're capable of as we grow

✅ No bureaucracy - Skip the commute, skip the meetings-about-meetings, and focus on building

The Startup Advantage

Joining a startup isn't just a job change—it's a career accelerator. Here's what you get that big companies can't offer:

🚀 Wear multiple hats and expand your skillset rapidly

🚀 See your decisions matter in weeks, not years

🚀 Shape the culture from day one

🚀 Build relationships with leadership and investors directly

🚀 Grow with the company—your ceiling is as high as you want to take it

The Bottom Line

We're a remote-first startup with enterprise clients—a rare combination that gives you startup speed, big-company impact, and the freedom to work from anywhere. You'll build apps that help people manage their wealth, architect systems that need to work flawlessly, and help create a company culture from day one.

If you're tired of commuting, tired of moving slow, want to build something meaningful, and are ready to lead from wherever you are—let's talk.
