Job Description

About the role

  • We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Send Core team.
  • We provide the critical infrastructure that every sending transaction flows through - from 10 pounds sent to a friend to a multi-million dollar business payment. We are on a mission to make sending money as easy and fast as paying for groceries with your card.
  • Apart from keeping our core infrastructure in a good shape, we are building customer-facing products that power the customer's send journey.

How we work:

  • We believe that an engineer is more than just a coder. Our engineers are focused on improving our customers' experience - and they see the impact of their work on millions of people every day.
  • Wise is all about collaboration. You will be surrounded by passionate people and work together with them to progress our mission.
  • What will you be working on?
  • Shape our Products: Collaborate with product, design, and data teams to deliver best experience for our customers
  • Control Critical Infrastructure: Own the systems that every sending transactions depends on across the entire platform
  • Drive Technical Excellence: Make architectural decisions for the core send components, making them reliant and performant
  • Drive Backend and Frontend for our products: You will be working 80% of the time on a backend and 20% on the frontend
  • Curiosity to explore ways to improve our products and your day-to-day work

What do you need?

We understand that you may not have much experience in our stack, or you haven't worked with the frontend for a while - and that's fine! As long as you are willing to learn and have strong fundamentals - we want to hear from you.

Technical excellence

  • Strong experience in building complex high-reliability systems
  • Ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly and simply
  • Strong computer science fundamentals

Product mindset

  • Focus on solving real customer problems with every change you made
  • Clear understanding of why we are building what we are building
  • Ability to think in product terms - not just on the code level

Personal qualities

  • Passion to always learn and grow
  • Getting things done yourself, instead of waiting to be told what to do
