Product Engineer - Wise Platform (Api Experience)

We’re looking for a Product Engineer to join our growing API Experience team in London. 

The API Experience team is responsible for some of the most critical systems at Wise, the public API gateway and authorization systems used by our own systems and our partners. Our goal is to increase efficiency during integration with our platform by setting the gold-standard for intuitive, consistent, enterprise-ready APIs, and to enable seamless integration of those APIs with developer-friendly tools.

Our challenges:

Operational Efficiency and Reliability: Enterprise customers require APIs that are exceptionally reliable and efficient. Banks and financial services handle large volumes of sensitive transactions that must be processed accurately and quickly.

Enhanced Developer and Partner Experience: A well-designed API reduces the complexity involved in integration, cutting down development time and costs.

Robust Security and Compliance: Financial grade security measures ensure that our enterprise partners can trust our platform. Compliance with industry regulations and standards also reduces the risk of legal issues. 

Scalability and future-proofing: Enterprises like banks and fintech companies have rapidly growing user bases and evolving needs. Our APIs need to be designed to handle increasing loads without performance degradation, ensuring that companies can scale their operations smoothly.

Competitive Advantage: A high-quality API can be a significant competitive differentiator. It enables enterprises to extend their service offerings quickly and efficiently and respond to market changes faster, and integrate new technologies seamlessly.

As part of this role, you will:

• Learning about the challenges for our large API partnerships, and help solve them.

• Designing and building the next sandbox test  environment.

• Balancing practical challenges in improving API design, implementation and best practices to non-centralised “empowered” engineering teams across the organisation.

• Working across the tech stack, supporting on frontend and infrastructure.

• Assist partners in the implementation phase, defining technical solutions and documenting requirements.

• Participate in feature definition, prioritisation, and long-term strategy planning with the team.

• Collaborate with Implementation Managers, Product Managers, and Engineers, you will be empowered to make product and project decisions.

• Improve integration experience through documentation, APIs, SDKs, code samples, and reference implementations.

• Design and develop new features for Wise services and expose them on the public API when needed.

• Travel to meet with our engineers in Tallinn as well as other travel opportunities.
