Dear Hiring Manager,

I am writing to apply for the Software Engineer role at your Toronto team. Five years building production fintech and product systems — most recently leading the core ledger at a Toronto fintech handling C$120M/day — have given me strong technical depth and the regulatory awareness Canadian fintech demands.

My current role has me owning the ledger service and leading OSFI compliance across three services. I am comfortable in cross-functional product teams. I have Canadian PR and am open to Toronto office or remote-Canada arrangements.

Sincerely,
[Your Name]
