Wise is a global technology company, building the best way to move and manage the world’s money. Min fees. Max ease. Full speed.

Whether people and businesses are sending money to another country, spending abroad, or making and receiving international payments, Wise is on a mission to make their life easier and save them money.

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

More about our mission.

The team is building a robust control framework to ensure the entire Wise product portfolio is covered with essential screening checks and prevent onboarding of sanctioned individuals, organisations and politically exposed people. We ensure that associated risks are thoroughly mitigated and that controls are functioning effectively.

We are scaling our operations team and developing robust solutions to ensure that screening alerts are accurately checked, fully auditable and seamlessly managed. As part of this effort, we are also focused on enhancing the customer experience, making it easier and more convenient for customers impacted by sanctions to provide necessary information and documents, while ensuring clear communication throughout the process.

In this role, you will work closely with our operational back-office and compliance teams to understand their workflows and challenges. You’ll take a leading role in redesigning and rebuilding our internal tooling solutions for case handling and management, creating tools that are intuitive, efficient and scalable. By improving both internal tools and customer-facing processes, you’ll make a significant impact on our operational excellence and the overall experience for our customers.

ABOUT THE ROLE:

• We want to fight financial crime, not just comply with requirements

• Run comprehensive screening checks across all products and use cases

• Ensure an invisible and frictionless experience for our customers

• Near-real time performance requirements for data processing

• Automation of manual processes: if some process logic can be described, it can be automated

ABOUT YOU:

• You have at least 7+ years of experience working with modern frontend frameworks such as React (and Typescript) or similar

• You have experience working with REST APIs and can read and understand backend code (e.g. Java)

• Understanding of good UX and comfortable working with CSS

• Desire for creating clean, testable code and open to feedback

• A strong product mindset, you prioritise work with the customers and operational teams in mind and make data-driven decisions

• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts to non-technical audiences, and a strong ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams, including designers, product managers, analysts and researchers

• Being able to work independently on customer problems is a key to success - you take responsibility and end-to-end ownership of your projects: drive and own them to make sure we hit the goals we want to achieve

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE:

• You’ll have onboarded and found your place through understanding your team and tribe vision and how you can contribute

• You’ll understand how our values can help you guide your work

• You’ll understand the reasons behind problematic payments, customer difficulties and how to go about solving them

• You’ll raise the automation level to enable scaling of screening solutions

• You’ll understand our customers and the impact our product makes in their lives

• You’ll identify technical challenges and opportunities and help us build a world class money transfer product

We’re people without borders — without judgment or prejudice, too. We want to work with the best people, no matter their background. So if you’re passionate about learning new things and keen to join our mission, you’ll fit right in.

Also, qualifications aren’t that important to us. If you’ve got great experience, and you’re great at articulating your thinking, we’d like to hear from you.

And because we believe that diverse teams build better products, we’d especially love to hear from you if you’re from an under-represented demographic.

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.
