Description

Wise is a global technology company, building the best way to move and manage the world's money. Min fees. Max ease. Full speed.

The Cloud Foundations team is responsible for building and maintaining the services that help ensure Wise's cloud infrastructure meets all the necessary requirements for a growing FinTech business. You will be working with us to develop tooling and provide hands-on technical expertise to design, deploy, and optimise our services in a compliant and cost-effective way on AWS and other major cloud providers.

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 platform tribe.

As we grow, managing our cloud platform becomes increasingly complex at scale. We need to sustain this growth by continuously iterating on the services we run, with a focus on availability, security, and ease of use.

Responsibilities:

  • Build, maintain, and support Wise's cloud platform.
  • Design and implement scalable and secure cloud infrastructure solutions.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to understand project requirements and deliver effective outcomes.

Requirements:

  • Experience designing, building, and deploying scalable cloud-based solution architectures, preferably on AWS and/or GCP.
  • Experience with IaC and automating infrastructure provisioning, developer operations, or continuous integration/deployment.
  • Strong knowledge of Golang and/or Python.
  • Proficient in written and verbal communication skills with the ability to articulate concepts to users and stakeholders, as well as facilitate cross-team collaboration.

Nice to Have:

  • Understanding of Kubernetes operator pattern.
  • Experience with networking within the cloud.
  • Experience with one or more observability platforms.
  • Knowledge of the financial services industry and/or other regulated industries.

Benefits:

  • The ability to choose your own path to success – you'll have the freedom to define the vision.
  • The freedom to have real impact.
  • The opportunity to inspire teams.
  • A fun work environment with social activities and events.

We offer:

  • Starting salary: £87,500 - £111,000 + RSUs.
