About the Role
You will be instrumental in building the governance, assurance, and data foundations that ensure every risk decision at Wise is consistent, explainable, auditable, and continuously monitored. This role works at the intersection of the Risk API platform, Product, and Financial Crime (FinCrime) teams, offering a unique opportunity to build the systems that give Wise confidence in every risk assessment it operates at scale.
Responsibilities
- Building and maintaining data ownership, lineage, and quality monitoring systems.
- Designing continuous monitoring and validation systems that verify controls perform as intended.
- Implementing end-to-end audit trails, change history tracking, and explainability tooling.
- Designing robust, high-throughput solutions that handle large volumes of data and can be quickly understood and scaled across multiple distinct risk domains.
- Build Data Trust: Implement data quality monitoring, data contracts, and lineage tracking.
- Deliver Continuous Assurance: Design and build automated monitoring systems that continuously validate control effectiveness.
- Enable Auditability: Create audit trail infrastructure and explainability tooling.
- Integrate with Risk API: Work closely with the Risk API team to embed governance and assurance capabilities into the core platform.
Requirements
- Proven experience building high-throughput, data-intensive systems in any language.
- Hands-on expertise with Kafka, SQL and NoSQL databases, and designing for scale and reliability.
- Experience with data quality frameworks, pipeline orchestration, or lineage tracking.
- Ability to reason about complex distributed systems, identify failure modes, and design solutions that are both robust and operationally simple.
- Comfortable operating with ambiguity, defining your own work from high-level objectives, and driving delivery end-to-end without close direction.
- Ability to work effectively across team boundaries — particularly with the Risk API team, Product, and FinCrime stakeholders — to align on contracts, data models, and integration patterns.
