Requirements
  • 5+ year track record of building and shipping products that customers love and produce business impact
  • Demonstrated ability to own a complete product or large parts of an offering and lead large, complex, cross-functional projects.
  • Curiosity and a thirst for learning. You dig deep into any problem you encounter until you’ve cracked the nut on what’s really important.
  • 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 a product, and a desire to learn what you don’t know to help drive decision-making.
  • Analytical skills to pull your own data, analyze it, and draw meaningful insights from it.
  • Experience gathering and synthesizing qualitative and quantitative inputs to inform prioritization decisions
  • Discerning taste for what constitutes a great product experience
  • Proven ability to turn complex problems into simple experiences.
  • Strong understanding of how design, product and engineering can work together to ship high quality experiences quickly and at scale.
  • Ability to effectively communicate ideas and project direction to internal teams and stakeholders.
  • Ability to work independently, biasing towards action to drive projects forward.
Responsibilities
  • Oversee the planning, development, and launch of new product experiences that continuously raise the bar on quality, performance, and ambition.
  • Set the product vision and strategy, partnering with Engineering, Design, Data Science, and others.
  • Lead the planning, development, and launch of projects.
  • Break down complex, behind-the-scenes projects into discrete phases that deliver value to clients and the business incrementally.
  • Establish and own a variety of metrics related to performance and client outcomes
  • Help elevate the Product Management practice at Wealthsimple and create an inclusive and supportive team culture.
  • Talk directly to customers to uncover problems, identify unmet needs, and validate potential solutions.

  • Wealthsimple's ability to raise substantial funds, such as the recent € million for its Venture Fund I, showcases its robust financial health and investor trust.

What critics are saying

  • The competitive landscape of digital wealth management and fintech is intense, with rivals like Revolut and Robinhood posing significant threats.
  • The selective availability of new features, like those in Wealthsimple Cash, could frustrate potential users and slow adoption.
