12 Canadian companies hiring right now
Part of building a company culture is finding ways to live your mission. Not long ago, Ottawa-based TerraFixing, which designs carbon capture technology for use in cold climates, organized a unique team bonding event — outside during the chilly Quebec winter. Founder Vida Gabriel held the company retreat at a cabin in Gatineau Park. “The team either cross-country skied or snowshoed to the cabin and we spent the night with no electricity,” she said. “It was just a great way to have all the employees experience true winter.”
Whether you’re game to work for a company that holds outdoor retreats in the dead of winter, or you’re keen to explore other, possibly warmer, options, here are twelve Canadian tech companies hiring right now.
Jobs in cleantech
Jule
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., these units can be used as backup generators or as a source of passive income in parking lots.
Fun fact: The company’s electric vehicle chargers are designed to store energy from the local power grid and use that power when ultra-fast charging cannot be supported.
Current opportunities: Business development manager, talent acquisition coordinator and senior buyer.
Ranovus
What they do: Ranovus develops optical interconnects, or specialized semiconductors, that improve transfer speeds and reduce power consumption in data centres.
In the news: The Ottawa-based venture announced a $100-million expansion of its manufacturing facility.
Current opportunities: Senior application engineer, senior embedded software developer and senior optical technician.
TerraFixing
What they do: One of the key weapons in the fight against climate change is carbon capture technology. Unfortunately, this technology often doesn’t address the decades-worth of legacy emissions that have already been released. Ottawa-based TerraFixing is developing direct air capture (DAC) solution that uses a chemical process to capture carbon in some of the world’s coldest environments.
In the news: Natural Resources Canada awarded the Ottawa-based company a $2.5-million grant to further develop its technology for use in cold climates.
Current opportunities: Finance manager and climate hardware engineer.
Jobs in health
DNAstack
What they do: Genome researchers have traditionally needed to download large datasets, a process which is slow, expensive and risks privacy breaches. Toronto-based DNAstack makes it easier and safer for researchers to find and share genomic data — our genetic blueprints — in the cloud, helping speed up discoveries without compromising privacy.
In the news: DNAstack is leading the charge to ensure the genomic data of Canadians is kept in Canada.
Current opportunities: Bioinformatics team manager and director of product.
Maple
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.
Fun fact: Before co-founding Maple, CEO Brett Belchetz was an ER physician, who experienced first-hand what backlogs can do to our country’s healthcare system.
Current opportunities: Customer support coordinator, service design and delivery manager and senior people and culture manager.
MHCombiotic
What they do: By 2050, the Council of Canadian Academies estimates 13,700 people in Canada will die every year from antimicrobial resistance, adding up to $120 billion in annual healthcare costs. Calgary-based MHCombiotic is developing therapeutics and medical devices with the goal of reducing the mortality rate caused by drug- and antibiotic-resistance.
Fun fact: The startup has already received U.S. and international patents and founder Dr. Ali Pormohammad was named a top ‘40 under 40’ by Calgary’s Avenue Magazine.
Current opportunities: Commercial marketing associate.
Jobs in finance
GetQuorum
What they do: Condo property managers have more on their to-do lists than just building maintenance. They are often responsible for getting residents together to approve purchases, updates and repairs. Toronto-based GetQuorum solves this challenge by bringing virtual meetings and electronic voting together in one platform for condos and other types of corporations.
What it’s like working at GetQuorum: Jerome Balancio, human resource specialist at GetQuorum, says as a remote-first company, the company prioritizes in-person events to help its team connect. “We do quarterly events for each department. Some teams have had dinners, other teams have gone go-karting and one team learned how to make a fire and build a shelter in a survival skills workshop,” Balancio said.
Current opportunities: Customer service representative.
MindBridge
What they do: Ottawa-based MindBridge uses machine learning and artificial intelligence to detect anomalous activity, human errors and intentional financial misstatements to help companies minimize financial loss.
In the news: KPMG announced it is partnering with MindBridge to use the company’s AI tools in client audits.
Current opportunities: Senior data scientist, senior solutions consultant and front-end software developer.
Trulioo
What they do: Trulioo is a Vancouver-based digital identity company that helps businesses verify customers and organizations online. Its platform is used by banks, credit unions, payment providers, marketplaces and crypto firms.
In the news: Trulioo and Toronto-based Phoenix Digital Health announced a partnership to strengthen patient trust and privacy for its virtual health care platform.
Current opportunities: Data platform engineer, junior software engineer and analytics engineer.
Jobs in software
Blue J Legal
What they do: Blue J uses AI to help financial professionals take the guesswork out of tax and employment law. Its software predicts how a court would likely rule on a specific case and helps tax professionals find answers to complex regulatory questions.
Fun fact:: In the April 28 edition of The Launch Pad, MaRS Discovery District’s flagship newsletter, Pat Lynch, Blue J’s head of brand, shared what he’s reading, watching and listening to.
Current opportunities: Partnership development manager, business development representative and senior data engineer.
Forma.ai
What they do: Planning sales projections can be cumbersome, especially as companies expand into new markets. Toronto-based Forma.ai‘s sales performance management (SPM) platform uses a company’s customer relationship management (CRM) data to help design sales territories, quotes and incentives to improve performance and boost revenue.
Fun fact: The company has made two acquisitions in as many years. In 2024, it acquired SeaMonster, an activity-based sales incentive platform. Then in 2025, Forma.ai acquired FatStax AI, a platform that maximizes sales commissions.
Current opportunities: Senior product manager, director of engineering and senior solutions engineer.
Philer
What they do: Closing on a home purchase can take up to 60 days to complete. Toronto-based Philer combines licensed real estate lawyers and AI-powered automation to reduce closing times to less than two weeks.
In the news: Philer is only the second tech platform in Ontario to be approved by the Law Society of Ontario as part of the Access to Innovation program. The designation means Philer can deliver legal services to end consumers across the province.
