Tarion: Protecting Ontario's New Home Buyers Tarion is an independent, not-for-profit organization providing warranty protection for new homes in Ontario. We ensure consumer confidence by backstopping builders' warranties, offering resources to homeowners, and resolving warranty claims when necessary. We've protected over 375,000 homes and enroll approximately 55,000 new homes annually, making us a cornerstone of the Ontario real estate market. Our underwriting team uses data-driven analysis to assess builder risk and apply appropriate terms and conditions. Our tech stack leverages technologies like Amazon, AWS Global Accelerator, Google Cloud Functions, and various schema markups for data management and online presence. While we're not a tech company at our core, we appreciate the importance of efficient systems to manage the complexities of our warranty programs. We value a collaborative, solution-oriented culture and utilize modern tools to support effective and remote work arrangements. We offer a competitive compensation and benefits package that includes opportunities for learning and development, an employee discount program, and access to wellness programs. We also foster a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone feels valued and empowered to succeed. We are an established organization with a clear mission and a substantial impact on the Ontario housing market. With a team of 11-50 employees, Tarion represents a stable and growing organization with a long history of successful consumer protection and a commitment to innovation. We are constantly seeking ways to improve our processes and better protect Ontario’s new home purchasers.
