Wise is a global technology company, building the best way to move and manage the world’s money. Min fees. Max ease. Full speed.

The team you’ll be working with: Screening Team

Moreover, you will work hand-in-hand with our regional and growth teams to support their onboarding processes with FinCrime and screening solutions, ensuring smooth and efficient integration across all regions.
Our main vision points are:
We want to fight financial crime, not just comply with requirements
Run comprehensive screening checks across all products and use cases
Ensure an invisible and frictionless experience for our customers
Near-real time performance requirements for data processing
Automation of manual processes: if some process logic can be described, it can be automated
