Full Job 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. More about [our mission](https://wise.jobs/our-mission) and [what we offer](https://wise.jobs/what-we-offer). About the role For our customers, Wise should feel as simple as sending money from A to B. Behind that simplicity is a complex engine of currencies, routes, products, and features, generating terabytes of data every day. Data Products & Insights helps Wise turn that data into products, insights, and decisions at scale. Within this area, the Machine Learning Platform (MLP) team builds and maintains the infrastructure that enables data scientists across Wise to develop, deploy, serve, and monitor machine learning models at scale. Our platform powers predictions and decisions across the business - from fraud detection to treasury management to product personalisation - directly impacting how Wise serves millions of customers worldwide. Your mission and role will be building and maintaining a cost efficient and scalable machine learning platform, that is a delight to use and that provides a good engineering and data science experience while shortening the full experimentation feedback loop - a data scientist does not just deploy models fast, but learns fast which model is better. Your input will directly affect how Wise is making decisions and predictions on billions of events. We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our team in London and help us evolve from a collection of tools into a coherent, self-service platform. How we work: We are a small, collaborative team that values product thinking, share
