    Do you believe in tech as a positive and democratizing force that can make people’s lives exponentially better?? So do we. We’re working on a smarter way for people to set money aside to get the things they want and live the life they want.

    50% of North American millennials live paycheck-to-paycheck and have less than $500 saved. 68% of us say that financial stress is our biggest source of anxiety. How is this possible? We are smart, university educated, culturally diverse and living in a golden renaissance of technology, productivity, and stability. But we’re strapped, struggling, stressed, and burdened. In the States this has fueled the populism behind the Trump effect. In Canada, we’ve now hit the highest household debt rate in the G7 - not a 1st to be proud of. As rational humans with millions of articles on personal finance available at the tap of our Macs, we know we should be saving. Friction, apathy towards the banks, inertia, and a million other reasons mean we don’t.

    Enter Thrive. Thrive is a mission-driven fintech startup with an emphasis on financial wellness and providing the framework for positive financial behaviours. Adaptive, automated, convenient, and hassle-free - we’ve built an app that coexists with our users’ chequing account, predictively finds disposable income, and saves it for our users. We are solving big problems using the latest technologies including machine learning and blockchain.

    We’ve built a company based on the values of equality, transparency, and trust using the best of Canadian tech talent.

    You will be joining the founding team of a well funded startup as we launch our first product Canada-wide in Q1, 2018. This is your opportunity to work on something that has never been done before, and that will have outsize impact on people around the world.
