More about our mission.

Job Description

Join Wise Platform and help us to build the best API integration experience on the planet for our partners. Our product engineering teams strive to truly understand what our partners need; working hand-in-hand with solutions engineers and business development to create powerful, scalable solutions for major global enterprises and banks. This role offers the chance to make a significant impact, addressing challenges like frictionlessly onboarding customers and enabling seamless international money transfers.

We are looking for an engineer that is passionate about solving complex problems for their stakeholders. Someone who thrives working in an environment where they are empowered to make decisions and drive features and products forward. To do this, we believe that to make the best technical decision, you should have a strong understanding of the products you’re building. 

How we work

We operate on a strong belief in automation, programmatic implementation, and reusable design. We’re looking for people who can step back and think holistically about the ecosystem, but also follow through and help implement the design; drawing on the resources across the rest of the global product tribe.

We need to sustain this growth by continuously iterating on the services we run, with a focus on availability, security, and ease of use. We’re looking for an engineer with relevant experience who can analyse complex requirements and deliver simple solutions to help our teams achieve our mission with speed and confidence. 

What will you be working on?

  • Design, develop, and maintain highly scalable services.

  • Producing public facing APIs for others to integrate with. 

  • Collaborate with teams across Wise to deliver real impact and expand the functionality we can offer to our partners on our platform.

  • Working closely with other members of the team to solve complex problems.

  • Advocating best practices and code reviews and mentoring junior engineers

 

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!

  • Experience in designing, building public API platforms that others integrate with.

  • Strong understanding of Java with experience with Spring boot

  • Experience with microservices and event driven design. 

  • Worked with Kafka or similar messaging systems

  • Knowledge of relational databases. SQL query optimisation and designing schemas is a plus

  • A strong product mindset and sense of ownership to enable you to make the best technical decisions and prioritise your work.

  • Great communication skills to drive projects across teams and be able to communicate complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.

  • Able to work independently while still being a good team player.
