About the role
About Bree
Bree is a consumer finance platform that brings better, faster, and cheaper financial services to over half the Canadian population who live paycheck to paycheck. We operate in a huge, but overlooked market in a country with the least amount of financial technology innovation in the developed world. Our first act is to become the cheapest and best provider of short-term credit to the 20 million people in Canada who live paycheck to paycheck.
More than half a million Canadians have already signed up with Bree, and we believe we are just scratching the surface. We are in an exciting place where we have product market fit, explosive growth, and a clear path to becoming one of the most important FinTechs in Canada.
We have $5M ARR per full-time engineer, growing at a double-digit monthly rate, profitable, and have had 0 voluntary employee churn. We were part of Y Combinator in 2021 and raised a $2M seed round shortly after.
