Wise is one the fastest growing companies in Europe and we’re on a mission: to make money without borders the new normal. We’ve got 10 million customers across the globe and we’re growing. Fast.

So, we’re building a new one.

And, we need a passionate Python Developer to join our mission.

For our external customers, using Wise is as simple as sending money from A to B. Yet behind this process is a complex engine of currencies and routes, generating more than 15 billion data changes each day. In terms of decision making, this data is the lifeblood of our business.

About TransferWise

In the words of our founder, ‘people don’t join a company. They join a mission’. And ours is big.

Current banking systems don’t let us send, spend or receive money across borders easily. Or quickly. Or cheaply.

So we’re building a new one.

Our mission is to make money without borders the new normal. We won’t stop until everyone can send, spend and receive money wherever they are, in any currency.

But we can’t do it alone. We’re growing incredibly fast and there’s still lots to get done.
