APAC customers are a strong contributor to the Wise's growth. India plays a crucial part of it.

  • Lead the development of robust systems to seamlessly onboard customers without delays, while being compliant to local regulations. 

  • Lead the development of scalable money movement systems that bring speed and convenience of domestic payment processing to cross border payments.

  • Be responsible for the team that builds and maintains automations and tooling to process customer payments and data in a scalable and cost-efficient way.

  • Utilise the observability stack and analytics to identify gaps, and unlock new opportunities for growth and operational excellence.

  • Collaborate with various stakeholders throughout Wise, plan roadmaps and vision of India Product with key stakeholders, and work through challenges to determine scope and realistic delivery.
