Full Stack Security Engineer

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 13 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.

For our customers, using Wise should feel as simple as sending a text message. Yet behind our app and website lies a complex, one-of-a-kind engine of currencies and routes that’s being designed, built and powered by our talented teams in cities around the world. With new capabilities being built every day, there’s still a lot to figure out, and we can’t do it alone. 

So, we need a Full Stack Security Engineer to join our mission and help us build a global platform that’s scalable, reliable and secure. You’ll dive right into projects on authorisation and authentication, as well as security tooling and automated controls

Here’s how you’ll be contributing to the Engineering Team:

• Working closely with product engineers and finding new ways to protect our customer data and funds;
• Make embedding security easier for product teams by providing ready-to-use security features (e.g. automated controls, security libraries and services that help maintain confidentiality and integrity)

Is this you?

• Great communication skills and the ability to articulate complex, security concepts to a non security audience
• Readiness to move fast and adapt quickly to change
• Experience with microservice architecture
• You enjoy writing testable code and believe in Test Driven Development
• Solid Java 8 plus knowledge plus experience with Spring framework
• Familiarity with JavaScript, Typescript and React
• You believe in and follow best coding practices, code reviews and open feedback
• You are security-conscious, security-literate and security-driven

Some extra skills that would be great:

• Experience working with relational and non-relational databases, query optimisation and designing schemas
• Experience withdatabase abstraction layers such as Hibernate

What you get back:

• 🚀 RSU's in a growing company 
• 💪 An annual self-development budget

We’re people without borders — without judgement or prejudice, too. We want to work with the best people, no matter their background. So if you’re passionate about learning new things and keen to join our mission, you’ll fit right in.

Also, qualifications aren’t that important to us. If you’ve got great experience, and you’re great at articulating your thinking, we’d like to hear from you.

And because we believe that diverse teams build better products, we’d especially love to hear from you if you’re from an under-represented demographic.
