About nesto and Nesto Cloud

nesto is Canada’s leading provider of mortgage technology and financing solutions, managing $73B+ CAD in residential and commercial mortgages, with 1,000+ team members across 12 offices nationwide. You will be working on Nesto Cloud, Canada’s most advanced cloud platform, delivering end-to-end technology solutions for lenders in the digital age.

Core AI is building a secure, multi-tenant platform that helps nesto teams ship AI-powered, SaaS-grade decisioning and workflows. We need a lightweight but powerful internal interface for teams to configure, observe, and operate workflows safely. You’ll build the UI that makes the platform usable: configuration views, trace/debug tools, audit trails, and operational insights, with access controls baked in.

• Build our internal portal experiences (TypeScript/React) for:
• • viewing and managing configuration (flows/graphs, rulesets, prompts)
  • viewing decision/workflow traces
  • audit trails and version history
  • experimentation controls and results views
• Implement UI patterns that support platform governance:
• • approvals, promotion (dev → staging → prod), rollback flows
  • RBAC-aware screens and permission-sensitive actions
  • safe confirmation patterns for high-impact actions (publish, rollback, permission changes)
• Create polished, consistent components and workflows:
• • forms, diff views, tables, timelines, and trace viewers
  • clear empty/loading/error states for operational scenarios
• Make sensitive-data UX safe by default:
• • redaction/minimization patterns, masked fields, access-gated detail views
  • clear affordances when access is restricted by permissions
• Build for operational excellence:
• • performance optimization for large traces/tables
  • basic front-end telemetry to measure reliability and usage
• Add automated tests and collaborate on quality and performance (unit/integration/e2e where appropriate).
• Partner closely with backend and ML to ensure the UI stays aligned with platform APIs and supports real operational workflows.
• Work in an Agile delivery cadence, contributing to planning, estimation, and iterative release.

• 6–8+ years of frontend experience shipping production UI.
• Strong TypeScript + React experience (Next.js a plus).
• Strong UI systems thinking: component architecture, state management, data fetching patterns.
• Strong experience integrating with and designing against APIs (REST/JSON; familiarity with auth patterns is a plus).
• Experience building complex internal tools (admin portals, observability UIs, workflow/config editors).
• Comfort working with RBAC, auditing requirements, and sensitive-data UX constraints.
• Excellent collaboration and communication skills.
• Experience working in Agile teams (iterative delivery, cross-functional collaboration).

• Experience visualizing workflow graphs, timelines, and traces.
• Familiarity with design systems and accessibility standards.
• Experience with observability tooling UX (logs/metrics/traces views).
• Experience building diff/compare UIs for versioned configuration or policy changes.

• The A-Team: Work alongside high-performing talent in the industry.
• Accelerated Growth: The slope of your learning curve here will be vertical. You will touch more production systems in one year than you would in five years at a bank.
• Top-Tier Coverage: Premium benefits plan fully paid by nesto, including comprehensive insurance and unlimited access to telemedicine and mental health services for you and your family.
• Rest & Recharge: 4 weeks of vacation to ensure you stay at peak performance.
• Best-in-Class Tools: Access to the resources and tech you need to execute without friction.
• Working framework: The environment that makes you productive and enables teamwork (Hybrid model).

At nesto, we believe that creativity and collaboration are the result of a diverse team. We are committed to fostering a culture of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, and we strongly encourage women, people of color, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and individuals with disabilities to apply. We are committed to creating a workplace that is inclusive and welcoming to all.
