The Challenge: The Logistics of Global Money
Moving 35 billion every month requires a robust high-availability engine. At Wise our Back End engineers solve the complex logistics of money movement at scale:
Liquidity Routing Engines: Building the algorithms that determine in real-time the most cost-effective and fastest path for capital across 50 currencies.
Asynchronous Orchestration: Managing the moving window of global banking hours and ensuring transactions are queued retried and settled across varying regional bank protocols.
Immutable Ledgers: Ensuring 100% data integrity and reconciliation for every penny moved maintaining rigorous risk and audit controls in a high-throughput environment.
The Role
We are looking for a Back End Engineer who thrives on building resilient distributed this role you will be the architect of the services that power our global treasury operations. You will design mission-critical systems that automate the movement of massive volumes of money ensuring our plumbing is invisible fast and fail-safe.
What Youll Do
Architect Distributed Systems: Design and maintain scalable microservices (primarily in Java/Spring Boot) capable of handling billions in monthly volume with zero downtime.
Solve Global Logistics: Develop the logic that handles real-world constraints such as bank-specific API quirks holiday schedules and regional settlement cut-offs.
Data Integrity & Reconciliation: Build and optimize the data infrastructure that ensures every movement of money is accounted for creating a source of truth for our data-driven decision-making.
API Design & Integration: Build robust REST APIs that provide the Front End team with clean performant access to complex financial data models.
Performance Engineering: Optimize database queries and message-driven architectures (Kafka/RabbitMQ) to ensure our systems scale alongside Wises rapid growth.
Qualifications :
What Youll Need
- Back End Mastery: Deep expertise in Java (or similar JVM languages) and experience with Spring Boot or modern microservice frameworks.
- Distributed Systems Knowledge: You understand event-driven architecture concurrency and how to build systems that stay consistent even when parts of the network fail.
- The Logistical Mindset: You enjoy the challenge of modeling complex real-world ruleslike banking regulations and currency volatilityinto clean maintainable code.
- Database Fluency: Strong experience with SQL (PostgreSQL) and an understanding of how to manage high-stakes transactional data with precision.
- Operational Empathy: You build for observability. You care about logging tracing and monitoring because you know that in Treasury silent failures are not an option.
Additional Information :
For everyone everywhere. Were people building money without borders without judgement or prejudice too. We believe teams are strongest when they are diverse equitable and inclusive.
Were 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.
