The opportunity

At Wise, we're not just developing a product; we're redefining the financial landscape. As a Platform Engineer, you will be at the heart of this transformation, entrusted with complex, critical tasks that extend across the breadth of our technological endeavours.

Why This Role Matters

You will be joining our Compute team, a core component of our technological fabric. This team's mission is critical: to establish a robust, scalable platform that enables our engineers across the globe to deploy and manage services efficiently. Our platform is designed to handle immense scale and complexity, ensuring that millions of users experience seamless financial transactions. Your work will be pivotal in evolving this platform to new heights, leveraging advanced technologies and methodologies.

  • Holistic System Outlook: Assess the ecosystem as a whole to identify technological and systemic improvements. Your strategic oversight will help in preemptively addressing potential scalability and reliability issues before they impact our services.
  • Active Collaboration and Leadership: While you will be deeply involved in hands-on technical work, your role also entails leading projects and collaborating with cross-functional teams to share knowledge, mentor peers, and refine our engineering practices.
  • Embrace and Extend Cloud-Native Practices: With ongoing investments in AWS and Kubernetes, you will have the opportunity to lead initiatives that expand our capabilities in the cloud-native landscape, from developing Kubernetes operators to enhancing our service mesh infrastructure.

Challenges and Opportunities

This role is designed for those who thrive in environments where the pace is fast, the landscape is continually evolving, and the stakes are high. You will tackle complex problems that require a blend of technical expertise, strategic thinking, and practical execution. The diversity of challenges will offer continuous learning opportunities, sharpening your skills and deepening your expertise in a dynamic, supportive environment.

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.
