WHO WE ARE

Apex Fintech Solutions (Apex) powers innovation and the future of digital wealth management by building tech-forward solutions that help simplify, automate, and facilitate access to financial markets for all. Our robust suite of fintech software enables us to support clients such as Stash, Betterment, SoFi, Webull, and eToro, amongst many others; collectively, Apex powers access to the stock market for over 22+ million end customers.  

 

 At Apex, we are changing how the securities industry operates by reinventing the status quo, which was manual, slow, and accessible only by the ultra-wealthy. We're digitizing and democratizing systems so that everyone has an opportunity to invest. 

 

When you're at Apex, you drive this change. You're part of a global team with a clear vision: to be the trusted technology that powers the digital economy. Our offices in Austin, Dallas, Chicago, New York, Portland, Belfast, and Manila are home to over 1,000 employees.

ABOUT THIS ROLE

Apex's SHARK early career program for new grads who refuse to settle for ordinary.

SHARKS are Strategic. High-achieving. Always Reimagining Key Solutions. They're hungry to solve problems in their path.

This isn't a rotational program where you shadow and observe. You're a full-time employee from day one, owning real business strategy work and driving AI & data-powered innovation in fintech.

As a Business SHARK, you'll join a cohort of new grads on a year-long journey built to fast-track you from talented graduate to fintech business leaders. SHARKs go through intensive training, mentorship, and high-visibility projects.

The basics: Begins July 2027 | In-office 4 days/week in Austin, Dallas, New York, or Chicago (Relocation Assistance Available) 

What to Expect 

  • Kick off with a 6-week immersive onboarding (business analytics training, fintech fundamentals, and Apex culture) 

  • Use AI and automation to turn data into insights and streamline how the business runs 

  • Join your home team as a core contributor, owning projects that impact operational efficiency and strategic decisions 

  • Lead strategic initiatives across process optimization, financial modeling, and client data analysis 

  • Build your portfolio through business innovation challenges and competitive analysis projects 

  • Get continuous mentorship from SHARKs who've swam the same seas

Why It's Worth It 

  • Real work from day one. You're an owner, not an observer 

  • Direct executive access through monthly 1:1s 

  • Dedicated time to build AI-powered projects that actually ship—not just experiments 

  • A clear path forward—we're building future leaders, not permanent analysts 

  • A cohort and alumni network that opens doors for life 

Tech & tools: Excel · Claude · Claude Code · Business intelligence tools · Data analysis platforms 

What We're Looking For 

  • Available to start July 2027 alongside your SHARK cohort 

  • Bachelor's in Business Administration, Finance, Economics, Data/Business Analytics, Marketing, Operations, Information Technology, or related field 

  • Typically 3.0+ GPA (exceptional candidates with strong leadership encouraged to apply). Transcript required in the application. 

  • Demonstrated leadership through internships, business projects, or campus involvement 

  • Strong problem-solver who thrives in business ambiguity and complex operational challenges 

  • Strong communicator who can influence at all levels and present to executive stakeholders 

  • Genuine curiosity about fintech, stock market, and financial markets 

  • Eligible to work in the US without employer sponsorship 

Why Apex? 

While other programs offer rotations and observations, SHARK offers transformation. You'll tackle business challenges that would take years to access elsewhere, present solutions to executives who implement your ideas, and build a portfolio that distinguishes you for life. We're not looking for perfect resumes—we're looking for future business leaders.
