Wish is one. Though I'm not a big fan of their product.
The other is a Series D startup based in SF

I'm actually in Vancouver but both roles allowed me remote.
Wish is one so post-ipo.
The other is a Series D startup based in SF.
I think remote is your best bet for high salary in Canada.

My lowest offers where 120k CAD Base, 100k USD in options.
My best two offers:
200k CAD Base, 390k USD RSU /4 years, 20k CAD Sign on
200k CAD Base, 330k USD in Options / 4 years, 20k CAD Sign on
I'm also still waiting on some numbers from Google Canada but I doubt they will match.

Just to add my own data point. I studied leetcode for 6 months during covid. Sent about 30 applications interviewed at 10 companies and received 8 offers.
2 of these offers where double my current TC through negotiation. It's not just FAANG but startups making very good offers. I have 3 YOE.
For negotiation:
Always ask for at least 20% more + a signing bonus
Have competing offers
Interview well
Be willing to walk away. If they can't do it there's another company that will.
