Job description

We're looking for a skilled Senior Software Engineer to join our Consumer Onboarding team.

The Consumer Onboarding team is responsible for making our customer's first experience with Wise easy, simple and delightful. We do that by building systems and experiences that can scale onboarding across the world just like Wise does, while working with many different teams to welcome and introduce our customers to Wise's offering and how to use them to solve their cross currency needs.

What will you be working on?

Our team builds systems that onboard more than 1.3 million users a month - and as one of the engineers in the team, you'll play a fundamental role in shaping their experience with Wise. We are looking for an Senior Software Engineer who can work closely with product, design and analytics to shape and build Wise's onboarding experience.
