More about our mission and what we offer.
Job DescriptionWhat are we looking for?
We are looking for a Senior Network Engineer to join our Platform Integrations APAC team, where you'll help expand and maintain direct integrations with payment systems and partners across the region.
What is the Platform Integrations APAC (PI-APAC) team?
The Platform Integrations squad sits within the Platform tribe, which designs, builds and operates the foundational direct integration infrastructure that power the product that moves billions of dollars every month. The Platform Integrations APAC team within PI leads the direct integrations in the APAC region while also supporting integrations all over the world.
Here’s how you’ll be contributing to the Team?
Design, implement and maintain integrations between Wise and complex financial systems.
Develop and design scalable and repeatable architecture with complex regulatory requirements.
Analyse infrastructure to determine inefficiencies and problems, and create automation and optimisation.
Collaborate with our larger platform engineering team and alongside product engineering on globally impactful projects.
Communicate with various stakeholders throughout Wise, plan roadmaps with your team, and work through challenges to determine scope and realistic delivery.
Work with Leads and Engineers to influence the direction and change current technology implementations, as well as advocate for excellence with third parties.
This role will give you the opportunity to:
Work in a modern, cloud heavy environment where remote connectivity is a staple of our tech ecosystem
Choose your path to impact - we believe people and teams are most empowered when they can act autonomously. So rather than telling you what to do, you’ll work with your team to create a vision of your own. Of course, you can always gather feedback from smart, curious people across Wise but you’ll have the freedom to make your own calls
Grow as an engineer - understand what problems the business needs to solve and why, then proactively resolve them. We shy away from micro management
Approach new challenges with the freedom to develop novel and customised solutions
Be part of our mission to make money without borders the new normal
Qualifications

Experience in developing and documenting network designs
Ability to translate business requirements into explainable technical solutions for internal and external stakeholders
