The Challenge: The Logistics of Global Money
Moving 拢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 systems. In 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 You鈥檒l 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 Wise鈥檚 rapid growth.
