Check out snaptravel, a series A startup founded by a few ex-googlers, facebookers. I have a friend that works there, they are legit, and have the highest hiring bar I have seen in all Canadian startups. Their CEO also has experiences building a startup from ground up to an acquisition exit.
Tons of companies have the same exact business model, though... I know a guy who formed a single person company with the same model and has been running it for a few years now.
Well I believe they are trying to pivot into a messenger + NLP + recommendation model. Obviously I’m not saying they are the next Airbnb/Uber but in the limited market of early stage Canadian startups I think they are the best.
Which city? If it's in Vancouver, Amazon is one of the largest and best paying employers. Lots of initiatives like aws, alexa, and retail. Wlb is better than seattle. Pm me if you want to know more or want a referral
Mozilla offices are in Vancouver and Toronto, or remote.
AMD is in Markham / Toronto area.
