ABOUT US:                          

We’re a talented team of product managers, digital marketers, developers, and product designers building Canada’s leading financial product comparison platform, Ratehub.ca (think Expedia, but for financial products). We compare mortgage rates, credit card rewards, deposit returns and insurance quotes.

We love helping Canadians save money by empowering them with the tools to make smart financial decisions. We believe in financial transparency, product innovation, entrepreneurship and community. That’s our modus operandi.

THE ROLE:

We are looking for a passionate web developer to join the Ratehub team who will play a central role in the keeping Ratehub’s web interfaces up-to-date and looking beautiful. The ideal candidate will work closely with skilled product owners, UI/UX designers and other engineers to build applications that exceed customers expectations and improve the way they find financial products.

• 
  

  Creating elegant and responsive web interfaces that work across a range of browsers and devices using HTML5, CSS3, ES6, React, and Webpack

  
  


• 
  

  Maintaining and extending our blog and content management systems

  
  


• 
  

  Building integration points between systems using web services and leveraging external web services to provide functionality

  
  


• 
  

  Working with support, marketing, business and other team members to identify product and process improvements, suggest implementation options, trade-off alternatives, and make engineering decisions

  
  

As a growing, late-stage startup, we look for self-starters who thrive in a fast-paced, agile environment – which means wearing many hats, being able to change direction quickly, and showing an eagerness to learn new technologies as the need arises. And most importantly – we look for people who can prioritize, multitask, and deliver – because it’s a lot more fun to get things done.

Ratehub offers a friendly, innovative and collaborative work environment and our engineering team is based in downtown Kingston, ON. Our talented team drives our success, and we support each individual in fulfilling his or her potential.
