Senior Treasury Analyst (Canada )

About The Role

Finance’s mission is to help support Shopify’s growth over the long-term and ensure we achieve our objective of making commerce better for everyone. We are trusted advisors and growth partners to the business, always striving to learn, provide insights, solve complex problems and contribute positive impact. Finance plays an important role at the strategic planning table and directly influences the future direction of Shopify.

We are seeking talented Finance individuals who, in addition to the above, have a passion for learning and leveraging technologies such as SQL and AI to drive impactful data analysis and transform our processes. We're a highly technical team that builds its own tools, operates at speed, and says yes as a default. If you are an enthusiastic professional who's looking to drive outcomes, and build what a best-in-class treasury function looks like, we would love to have you on board.

We think of Shopify as a crafter-centric company where meetings come second to getting shit done.

You’ll be doing things like:

• Managing day-to-day liquidity across Shopify's global treasury operations, including cash positioning, investment management, reconciliation, forecasting, and reporting, while continuously improving our processes and controls
• Using AI reflexively to identify automation opportunities and build the tools that act on them; streamlining treasury workflows in ways that drive efficiency without giving up control. Prompting, coding, and shipping are all part of the job here
• Collaborating with Finance Engineering, Product, and other cross-functional teams to support treasury initiatives and projects
• Assisting in managing foreign exchange exposure and hedging activities
• Supporting bank administration functions including opening, closing and maintaining bank accounts, securing banking services, and supporting KYC & AML compliance requirements
• Planning and instituting business continuity processes and business impact analyses
  
  
  

What you bring to the team:

• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or related field
• Demonstrated corporate treasury experience; you understand liquidity management, bank account administration, and cash forecasting from the inside
• Familiarity with AI tools and willingness to use them reflexively as part of your daily workflow
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills, with a passion for leveraging data and AI tooling to drive decisions
• A builder's mentality and a proven track record of execution and impact - especially creating processes and systems from scratch in fast-moving, ambiguous environments, and leading yourself in a remote environment
• Superior written and verbal communication skills, business partnering expertise, and a team-oriented focus
  
  
  

It’d be great if you have:

• A designation, CFA, CPA, CTP or equivalent professional designation
• Experience with technology, fintech, or SaaS-based business models; you understand what it means to be an enabler of product, not a gatekeeper
• Hands-on experience building tools or automations using AI to code
• Familiarity with Treasury Management Systems (like Modern Treasury) and multi-currency FX management
  
  
  

About Shopify

Opportunity is not evenly distributed. Shopify puts independence within reach for anyone with a dream to start a business. We propel entrepreneurs and enterprises to scale the heights of their potential. Since 2006, we’ve grown to over 8,300 employees and generated over $1 trillion in sales for millions of merchants in 175 countries.

This is life-defining work that directly impacts people’s lives as much as it transforms your own. This is putting the power of the few in the hands of the many, is a future with more voices rather than fewer, and is creating more choices instead of an elite option.

About You

Moving at our pace brings a lot of change, complexity, and ambiguity - and a little bit of chaos. Shopifolk thrive on that and are comfortable being uncomfortable. That means Shopify is not the right place for everyone.

Before you apply, consider if you can:

• Care deeply about what you do and about making commerce better for everyone
• Excel by seeking professional and personal hypergrowth
• Keep up with an unrelenting pace (the week, not the quarter)
• Be resilient and resourceful in face of ambiguity and thrive on (rather than endure) change
• Bring critical thought and opinion
• Put AI agents and tools to work on the tasks they're built for, and focus on the work only humans can do
• Embrace differences and disagreement to get shit done and move forward
• Work digital-first for your daily work
