Job Description:

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 over 19 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 Security Engineer to join our mission and help us build a global platform that’s scalable, reliable and secure. We’re working on lots of exciting challenges, and you’ll dive right into projects helping consumers and businesses receive and send money from anywhere in the world.

You will be responsible for building security focused technical solutions with high regards to code quality, architecture applicability, performance, reliability and adherence to company-wide engineering standards. You will be responsible for monitoring, detecting, responding to, and managing security incidents, ensuring the integrity and confidentiality of our organization's information systems.

  • Dive into large-scale distributed systems and bring your expertise in Windows, MacOS, or Linux to the forefront.
  • Leverage your skills with Elastic, EDR, SIEM, WAF, and cloud infrastructure to tackle exciting challenges and own your projects.
  • Fuel your passion for learning by investigating problems to their root cause and enjoy the thrill of threat hunting and data exploration.
  • Collaborate with a dynamic team, bringing people together to solve complex problems and drive impactful solutions.
  • Thrive in an environment of open feedback and continuous improvement.
  • Be ready to jump into on-call rotations, ensuring our systems are secure and resilient around the clock.

Nice to have:

  • Experience with Python, Go, asynchronous message queues, and microservices architecture.
  • Skills in designing, deploying, and maintaining clean RESTful APIs.
  • Knowledge of regulatory compliance standards (e.g., GDPR, PCI-DSS).
