As part of our team, you will be helping us create an entirely new network for the world's money. For everyone, everywhere.

Join our Europe & UK Local team and be at the forefront of tailoring Wise for our diverse markets! You'll be directly impacting how millions pay by building innovative features like our recent Open Banking integration, while also streamlining our systems through impactful architectural changes and expanding payment options across Europe. We're an agile, fast-paced team that lives and breathes data, constantly seeking customer and business feedback to drive our decisions and deliver in rapid sprints. If you're ready to make a tangible difference in a dynamic environment, this is your chance!

The Engineering Team at Wise is central to what has made the business successful. Having product-focused and forward-thinking engineers has allowed Wise to cater to the needs of customers unlike any other business. They have built a world-leading platform and product, but there is still more to do.
As a key member of the team, you will be instrumental in building specific products to improve market fit with a current focus on our expansion into the Spanish market.

You will also continue to improve our local payment methods and work on our Open Banking journeys across Europe and the UK.

This is new and challenging territory for Wise offering a huge potential to drive new customer experiences and make a significant direct impact on our customers' lives by reducing fees and speeding up transfers.

You will also collaborate closely with various teams, including Banking, Product Compliance, Platform, and Customer Service to ensure seamless execution.

The team is extremely data-driven, providing an opportunity to work with modern development methods and become a leading expert in the rapidly developing field of Open Banking.

We are looking for someone with demonstrated impact in a customer-facing environment who is excited to take ownership of these country-specific products.

What do you need?

We are fully aware that it is uncommon for a candidate to have all skills required and we fully support everyone in learning new skills with us. So if you have some of those listed below and are eager to learn more we do want to hear from you!

• A strong product mindset and passion for user experience, you prioritise work with the customers in mind and make data-driven decisions to fix customer pain-points
• Great communication skills and the ability to articulate complex, technical concepts to non-technical audience
• You enjoy writing testable code and believe in Test Driven Development
• You believe in and follow best coding practices, code reviews and open feedback
• Experience with Distributed and Concurrent Systems

• A proven track record as a senior software engineer.

For everyone, everywhere. We're people building money without borders — without judgement or prejudice, too. We believe teams are strongest when they are diverse, equitable and inclusive.

We're proud to have a truly international team, and we celebrate our differences. Inclusive teams help us live our values and make sure every Wiser feels respected, empowered to contribute towards our mission and able to progress in their careers.
