Job Description

Join Wise – One of Europe’s Fastest-Growing Companies

At Wise, we’re on a mission: to make money without borders the new normal. With over 16 million customers worldwide and growing fast, we’re building a better way for people and businesses to move money globally — quickly, securely, and affordably.

The current banking system? It’s outdated. Sending, spending, or receiving money across borders is still too slow, too expensive, and too complicated.

So we’re building something better. From the ground up.

We're looking for a Staff Backend Engineer to join our team and help us create a scalable, secure, and reliable global platform. You’ll work on high-impact projects that make it easier for people and businesses everywhere to send and receive money, no matter where they are.

About the Team: Receive Risk

The Receive Risk team is a global product team focused on making it safe and seamless for customers to receive money into their Wise accounts. We build intelligent systems and controls to detect and stop fraudsters and scammers — protecting both Wise and our customers.

We support all of our receive products (like local and global account details, payment links, and invoicing) and work closely with our Financial Crime teams to ensure these tools are low-friction for good users, and high-friction for the bad ones.

Additional Information

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.
