More about our mission and what we offer

Job Description

The Contacts team is a core team at Wise, dedicated to making adding, finding, and managing your recipients as easy as possible. We own this experience end-to-end: from the scalable platform securing tens of millions of bank accounts customers send to, to the intelligent search algorithms and local integrations (like Pix) that power discovery, all the way to the customer-facing screens where users interact with their counterparties. The team is integral to Wise’s day-to-day operations — if our services go down, Wise goes down.

How we work

We work in an agile fashion, with engineers closely collaborating with designers, the product manager, and the analyst. The team operates across our Tallinn and London offices. 

What will you be working on?

You will be part of an autonomous team, driving the technical vision for the backend solution powering the recipient’s user experience. You will help us scale-up and build a world class recipient management product.
