As we step into fall — and Q4 — many Canadian tech ventures are looking to close out the year by ramping up hiring to match their scaling efforts.
One of those companies is cleantech firm Carbon Upcycling. Having brought Canada’s first commercial carbon capture and utilization manufacturing facility online this year, the company is now hiring for a variety of positions, ranging from marketing to operations management, for its second plant, slated to open early next year.
“It’s a genuinely intriguing place to work because we’re at the intersection of cleantech and heavy industry, disrupting a space that hasn’t really been disrupted,” says director of marketing Madison Savilow.
Ready to make a change? Here are 11 Canadian companies hiring right now.
What they do: Calgary-based Carbon Upcycling’s circular decarbonization solution turns industrial carbon dioxide emissions and solid waste, such as ash and slag, into a low-carbon replacement ingredient for concrete. Its all-electric, low-energy process permanently locks carbon dioxide into the material.
What they look for in candidates: “Since we’re manufacturing too, we hire a lot from other heavy industries. We’re pulling strong technical and operating talent from other sectors into our space,” says Madison Savilow, director of marketing at Carbon Upcycling.
Current opportunities: Plant operations manager, director of business development and industrial operations specialist.
What they do: Jule designs and manufactures EV fast-charging stations and energy storage units. Developed for commercial and government customers across Canada and the U.S., Jule’s units serve as backup generators or as passive income sources in parking lots.
In the news: The electric charging company was recently featured in the Toronto Star.
Current opportunities: Accounting manager, operations and plant manager and human resources manager.
What they do: Multiverse Computing, with offices in Toronto, is a quantum and AI software company that focuses on reducing AI energy consumption. The startup has developed a technique to compress AI models to use less energy without reducing performance.
In the news: The company announced a project with Intel and Hewlett Packard Enterprise that cuts the processing time for speech-to-text conversion in half.
Current opportunities: Platform engineer, AI go-to-market manager and engineering manager.
What they do: Catching post-surgical issues early means better patient outcomes and shorter hospital stays. FluidAI helps physicians identify gastrointestinal surgery complications, such as leaks, before they become critical. Its bedside device combines sensors and machine learning to provide clinicians with real-time data and analytics.
In the news: The Kitchener-based company received FDA approval in 2025.
Current opportunities: Technical program director, product engineer and marketing manager.
What they do: Maple is a virtual care platform that allows users to see a doctor online 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Patients can securely text, call or video chat with a Canadian-licensed doctor.
The culture: “Our official policy is two days in-office, but many of our people are in the office five days a week,” says Selina Miah, vice president of people and culture. “One thing we recently introduced is the ability to work from a destination of their choice. If they’re on vacation, they can also spend a few extra days working from there, too. We give them that flexibility.”
Current opportunities: Senior product partnerships manager, bilingual customer support coordinator and product manager.
What they do: Kitchener-based Nicoya Lifesciences develops advanced biosensor technology that helps pharma and biotech researchers study how molecules bind to each other. This tool is used in the early stages of disease research and drug discovery.
Fun fact: The company’s solution is currently being used by scientists and researchers in more than 40 countries.
Current opportunities: Accounting manager, customer success scientist and sales development representative.
What they do: Montreal-based Fundica has developed a platform that economic development agencies use to help small businesses discover and apply to funding programs. These government programs help ventures expand operations and hire staff.
The hiring process: Co-founder and CEO Mike Lee says the company is actively hiring bilingual team members. “Because we have francophone and anglophone customers, we need someone who can speak to a client in Galveston just as easily as one in Gaspé.”
Current opportunities: Customer success coordinator.
What they do: Relay helps small businesses manage cash flow by automatically directing income into dedicated accounts for tax, payroll and other company operations. Instead of pooling capital into a single account, businesses can split funds across up to 20 chequing accounts, providing real-time visibility into operating cash.
What you get: The Toronto-based company perks include a dedicated wellness spending account.
Current opportunities: Brand designer, talent enablement coach and senior design engineer.
What they do: Shakepay allows Canadians to buy, sell and transfer Bitcoin through a mobile app. Its platform makes cryptocurrency transactions fast, secure and accessible.

Current opportunities: Senior security engineer, staff data scientist and senior legal counsel.
