Job Description

We are looking for a Software Engineer with a strong product and engineering mindset to join our Treasury FX Risk team.

Our team calculates FX risk from trading foreign exchange to meet Wise's liquidity needs. We manage mission critical services that provide accurate real-time risk calculations and aggregate market data from platforms like Bloomberg and Reuters. Collaborating with Data Science, we also ensure risks are hedged accurately and dynamically. Our systems offer a real-time view of Wise’s global financial positions, translating transactions into actual and forecasted money movements. Trading teams rely on our data to manage FX exposure and execute trades worth tens to hundreds of millions of pounds, making reliability and scalability our top priorities.

How we work

We operate on a strong belief in automation, programmatic implementation, and reusable design. We’re looking for people who can step back and think holistically about the ecosystem, but also follow through and help implement the design; drawing on the resources across the rest of the treasury tribe.

As we grow, sustaining our trajectory requires ongoing refinement and iteration of our services with a focus on availability, security, and user experience. We need a seasoned engineer who can dissect complex requirements and create elegant, impactful solutions, empowering our teams to advance our mission with agility and confidence.

  • Tackle challenges related to processing large data volumes, addressing performance bottlenecks, and implementing fault-tolerant solutions.

  • Gain in-depth expertise in the finance and treasury domains, contributing to the management of Wise's financial infrastructure.

  • Collaborate deeply with Operations, Analytics, Trading, and Product teams to align technical and business objectives.

Qualifications

What do you need?

  • Knowledge of Java and Spring Boot.

  • A strong sense of ownership and excellent communication skills to drive cross-team projects.

  • Ability to work independently while also being a collaborative team player, frequently engaging in cross-team efforts.

  • The ability to break down complex projects into incremental milestones that deliver customer value.

  • Curiosity and a drive for continuous learning and improvement.
