We are looking for a talented Senior or Staff Engineer to join our Consumer Onboarding team.
The Consumer Onboarding team is responsible for making our customer's first experience with Wise easy, simple and delightful. We do that by building systems and experiences that can scale onboarding across the world just like Wise does, while working with many different teams to welcome and introduce our customers to Wise’s offering and how to use them to solve their cross currency needs.
Our team builds systems that onboard more than 500,000 users a month - and as one of the senior engineers in the team, you’ll play a fundamental role in shaping their experience with Wise.
We are looking for an experienced frontend engineer with strong web expertise who can work closely with product, design and analytics to shape and build Wise’s onboarding experience.
As a Senior Frontend Engineer, you will:

Be responsible for the overall health and quality of the frontend services that power Wise’ onboarding experience
-
Work closely with your team to plan, scope and build consistent experience across Wise’s web and native applications
-
Work closely with your lead to own the availability and scalability of our onboarding product flows and architecture and help shape your team’s technical roadmap
-
Have the opportunity to guide and mentor your junior peers through their technical and professional growth
-
Have an impact across the broader Wise product and across Wise engineering as a whole,
-
Work closely with other teams to drive cross team technical initiatives to scale and grow the technical landscape that powers Wise’s onboarding experience
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 building and designing scalable and performant systems that handle large amounts of traffic - ideally using React based frontend applications, Javascript / Typescript

Experience with Continuous Integration and package management tooling like pnpm, Artifactory, Github Actions and others.

Experience working closely with and collaborating actively with backend engineers to drive architecture and API design
-
A strong product mindset and passion for UX – you prioritise work with customers in mind and make data-driven decisions to fix customer pain-points

Great communication skills and the ability to articulate complex, technical concepts to non-technical audiences
It would a bonus if you also have:
-
Experience with modern frontend frameworks like Next.js, SSR and Turborepo/monorepos

What We Do
We’re making a positive, irreversible change in the world of finance. Together.
People on every continent around the world are choosing Wise to help them live, travel and work internationally. We’re the fairest, easiest way to send money overseas.
Built by and for people who live global lives, we make sending money abroad up to 8 times cheaper than the bank. This is money without borders - instant, convenient, transparent and eventually free.
For our customers, using Wise is as simple as sending money from A to B, but behind our app and website is a complex engine of currencies and routes, that’s being designed, built and powered by our talented teams in cities around the world.
We’re just at the beginning of our story and we’re growing at an incredible pace. We won’t stop until anyone, anywhere can send, spend and receive money wherever they are, whatever they’re doing. There’s still heaps to do and we can’t do it alone.
Why Work With Us
We are a mission-driven company, looking to change banking for the better. Current banking systems don’t let us send, spend or receive money across borders easily. Or quickly. Or cheaply. So, we’re building a new one. If you're looking for an autonomous work environment, where you'll face cool challenges, learn and grow, you'll like working at Wise
