Job Description

Wise is building the world’s most powerful money movement infrastructure — designed to make international payments instant, low-cost, and transparent. Our mission: money without borders.

We’ve built a high-scale cross-border platform that processes billions in volume across 70+ countries, and we’re now bringing that infrastructure to banks, fintechs, and global platforms through Wise Platform, our enterprise offering.

We’re now looking for an exceptional Engineering Lead to help us expand and scale Wise Platform Issuing — our global card infrastructure product. Since 2018, we’ve been building and operating our own card issuing and processing stack, processing over £80B in card spend globally and launching millions of cards as Principal members with both Visa and Mastercard. This infrastructure has powered launches with industry leaders like Nubank in Brazil and Tiger Brokers in Singapore.

We’re looking for an engineering leader with deep fintech experience to help us take Wise Platform Issuing to the next level. This is a rare opportunity to build a category-defining product at global scale, backed by the engineering strength and mission of Wise Platform.

What will you be working on?

  • Stay hands-on and lead by example. You’ll be involved in the day-to-day of designing, developing, and maintaining your team’s services, ready to roll up your sleeves, review code, and shape architecture

  • Co-own the product vision and roadmap. Working as a critical partner to your Product Manager, you’ll shape the ‘why’ and the ‘what’, not just the ‘how’. Your goal is to know the customer and the problem space so well you can lead the team to the right outcomes.

  • Empower and grow your team. You will cultivate ownership and accountability at every level. Your role is to empower your team to own and drive key initiatives, building the next generation of leads and staff engineers at Wise.

  • Uphold technical excellence. You’ll support the team in technical decisions to make sure we build a high-quality product that is reliable and can handle the next billion transactions.

  • Influence across Wise. You’ll build strong relationships across the organization to inspire other teams, align them behind a shared goal, and solve partner problems faster than we could alone.

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.
