Senior Frontend Engineer I - Investments Team

TLDR

Define product features and technical foundations for Wise Assets, a unique offering enabling customers to grow their money and manage investments directly, challenging traditional banking.

About the role

With Wise Assets, we’ve enabled customers to grow the money they hold with Wise  - giving them access to government-backed assets that track base rates, or a global stock index fund. This is a product that challenges traditional banking by putting customers in control of how their balance is held. Banks keep the yield; we pass it on.

The approach is unique:

• A current account backed by real assets

• Daily returns across the entire balance

• Instant access with no penalties or lock-ins

• Segregated, bankruptcy-protected custody

Now we’re expanding the offering further. We want to let customers invest in individual stocks, build long-term, tax-beneficial money pots, and manage more of their financial lives directly through Wise.

You will define how this works from the ground up - shaping the product, the technical foundations, and every detail that makes it real.

Who are we looking for?

  • You know how to deliver complex product solutions and build distributed web applications for millions of customers.

  • You are an expert in building web applications using modern frontend stack like React backed by Javascript/Typescript.

  • You have a strong product mindset and genuine passion for user experience — you prioritize customer value and make data-driven decisions.

  • You have a self-starter attitude with a collaborative spirit — you work well independently and across teams. 

  • You have an ability to break down complex problems into shippable milestones that deliver value quickly.

  • Clean, efficient, and well-tested code is your standard — you’re big on performance and maintainability.

  • You are a strong communicator and can articulate complex, technical concepts to non-technical audience. You know how to communicate with multiple teams and find the best solution that suits everyone.

What Does Success Look Like

  • You’ve found your footing in the team and understand how your work connects to the broader mission

  • You’re using Wise’s values to guide your decision-making

  • You understand our customer needs very well and actively search for solutions for them.

  • You’ve built empathy for our users and the real-world impact of our product.

  • You deliver new functionality for our customers efficiently and show visible impact.

What we offer: 

  • Starting salary: £85000-£105000 + RSUs
