KOHO is hiring across Canada as the fintech company moves closer to its goal of becoming a federally regulated bank.
Today the company announced it has raised $130 million, capital that will support KOHO’s continued push toward a federal banking licence while helping grow its core product suite, including spending and savings accounts, credit-building tools, overdraft protection, and its recently launched crypto offering.
Alongside the financing, KOHO is currently advertising 13 open roles on its careers page across areas including product, data, marketing, risk, compliance, legal, finance, and engineering.
The hiring activity comes as KOHO positions itself for its next stage of growth in Canada’s financial services market. The Vancouver-headquartered company says it is building “Canada’s financial future” by creating financial solutions that empower Canadians.
KOHO’s open roles include positions tied closely to the company’s expanding financial products and regulatory ambitions, including senior product, treasury and payments, analytics, regulatory, risk, marketing, and technology roles.
The company is also leaning into its employer brand as it competes for fintech talent. KOHO describes itself as a remote-first workplace built around shared ownership, high standards, and a mission of helping Canadians make financial progress.
Its culture page highlights a fully remote environment, competitive salary, stock options, annual merit increases, a holiday bonus, generous paid time off, health and lifestyle spending accounts, a $1,000 remote office setup budget, a $5,000 referral bonus, and a $2,000 annual training allowance.
The fintech has earned external recognition as an employer as well. According to Great Place to Work Canada, 93 percent of KOHO employees say it is a great place to work, compared with 62 percent at a typical company. The organization also lists KOHO among the Best Workplaces in Canada for 2026 in the 100-to-999 employee category.
KOHO’s current hiring push reflects a broader talent story in Canadian fintech, where companies pursuing scale are increasingly looking for talent across product, compliance, risk, payments, data, and engineering.
For KOHO, the next phase is about more than adding users or products. As the company works toward bank status, it is also building the team required to support a more complex and regulated financial services business.
