Company Description

Wise is on a mission to make money without borders, the new normal. We’ve got over 16 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.

We’re looking for a Solutions Engineer to join our growing team in Austin, Texas.

The Wise Platform team works with financial institutions and major tech companies at a global level to offer Wise products and services directly to their customers through our API. Solutions Engineers make it happen by working with partners to build integrations to our class-leading international finance products, while improving Wise Platform by increasing the capabilities of our public API. The team’s goals are to drive the growth of Wise through partnerships and integrations by creating a world class product set delivered through third parties.

  • Collaborate with the technical pre-sales team to support the sales cycle and secure new partnerships

This role will give you the opportunity to

  • Choose your own path to success - you’ll have the freedom to define the vision and responsibility for making it happen

  • Identify problems and unlock opportunities for Wise and partners through technology solutions

  • Inspire other teams internally and externally with your ideas, knowledge and self-starter attitude

  • Travel to work with our teams in Tallinn, London, and New York, as well as visit our partners across North America
