## 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. Whether people and businesses are sending money to another country, spending abroad, or making and receiving international payments, Wise is on a mission to make their lives easier and save them money.

As part of our team, you will be helping us create an entirely new network for the world's money. For everyone, everywhere.

Our team in Personal Onboarding Verification is building and running the global KYC (Know Your Customer) system that provides the functionality to verify our customers. This system needs to keep up with increasingly sophisticated methods of criminals, but do it in a way to keep our product convenient and cheap for customers.

In addition to building global KYC features, our team also builds the framework for our Regional Teams to localize the verification experience. Our colleagues in Regional Teams extend the system with local verification vendors, collect documents specific to the country and implement any other checks that the local regulations mandate.

To succeed, our team needs to implement a system that keeps up with state of the art technology, enables several teams to contribute while keeping complexity and load manageable and has the data and observability to analyse our flows and prove they work according to regulations.

You'll join our Personal Onboarding Verification team – a diverse, cross-functional group passionate about solving complex problems with elegant solutions. We bring together engineering disciplines across the stack, designers, data analysts, and product managers who collaborate closely to deliver exceptional customer experiences.

Our team is responsible for the critical verification journey that consumers complete before using Wise's products. We own the entire verification lifecycle – from document collection flows and automated review systems to agent tooling and compliance monitoring.

We're people building money without borders , without judgement or prejudice, too. We believe teams are strongest when they are diverse, equitable and inclusive.
