Java Developer Crime Fighting Tribe

Wise is one the fastest growing companies in Europe and we're on a mission: to make money without borders the new normal. We've got 10 million customers across the globe and we're growing. Fast.

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.

And, we need a Java Developer to join our mission and help us build a global platform that's scalable, reliable and secure. We're working on lots of algorithmical challenges, and you'll dive right into projects on reconciliation, integrations, authorisations and authentications.

• You believe in and follow best coding practices, code reviews and open feedback
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and Distributed and Concurrent Systems
