Our mission is to deliver a tailored customer support experience that scales globally with our growth and helps minimise operational costs.

We emphasise self-service solutions that allow customers to resolve their issues instantly and effortlessly. By investigating why users contact us, we identify underlying problems and work closely with other product teams to implement effective solutions. This collaborative approach ensures that our support channels provide the right answers, whether through self-service options or directing users to the appropriate support resources.

In order to solve customer problems more effectively, we also developed chat as a support channel. 💪

  • Being able to work independently on customer problems is a key to success - you take responsibility and end-to-end ownership of your projects: drive and own them to make sure we hit the goals we want to achieve

  • Great communication skills and the ability to articulate complex, technical concepts to non-technical audience

  • Experience working with relational databases, writing and reading SQL queries (query optimisation and experience with non-relational databases is a plus)

  • You believe in and follow best coding practices, code reviews and open feedback

  • Being able to propose technical solutions that optimise for latency and throughput at the same time

Built by and for people who live global lives, we make sending money abroad up to 8 times cheaper than the bank. This is money without borders - instant, convenient, transparent and eventually free.

For our customers, using Wise is as simple as sending money from A to B, but behind our app and website is a complex engine of currencies and routes, that’s being designed, built and powered by our talented teams in cities around the world.

We’re just at the beginning of our story and we’re growing at an incredible pace. We won’t stop until anyone, anywhere can send, spend and receive money wherever they are, whatever they’re doing. There’s still heaps to do and we can’t do it alone.

Why Work With Us

We are a mission-driven company, looking to change banking for the better. 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. If you're looking for an autonomous work environment, where you'll face cool challenges, learn and grow, you'll like working at Wise
