Job description

Job description:

What it’s really like to work here
At TransferWise, we do things a bit differently. There’s no corporate nonsense and no old-fashioned hierarchy. Instead, we work in dozens of self-sufficient, autonomous teams. Think of them like start-ups within a start-up that learn from each other.

Each team picks the problems they want to solve. So there’s no micro-management. No hiding behind fancy job titles. And no one telling you what to do. You are your own boss. But you’ll get tons of guidance and plenty of support from talented, super-smart colleagues from all over TransferWise.

We’re going to be upfront - the way we work doesn’t suit everyone. But if freedom, autonomy, and life-affirming, head-scratching professional challenges rock your world, we could be a match made in heaven.

So, what’s the role?
We offer an unique opportunity to work within the Fraud Prevention engineering team, applying best engineering practices to fight crime around the world. We are using the latest technologies and tools to build an advanced Fraud Prevention Engine, detecting payment and other types of fraud. You'll work on:
  • fine-tuning and feature engineering of Machine Learning models
  • improving our Investigation UI
  • improving and enhancing the relevant data-pipelines

Tech Must haves:
  • Java and Spring Boot preferred
  • HTML, CSS and JavaScript
  • Experience developing in a modern front end framework, Angular.js is preferred, but experience with Backbone, Ember, Knockout or React is also relevant
  • Experience working with SQL databases, writing custom queries and designing schemas
  • Understanding of test driven development (TDD), and the desire to write tests.

Mindset:
  • Passionate about technology, product and user experience
  • Ability to work independently and plan your own solutions to problems
  • You put customer at the heart of everything you do and that empathy drives all decision you make
  • You are willing to travel, to work and learn with dev teams in London and Tallinn.

Bonus Points:
  • Experience with Fraud Prevention
  • Experience and/or understanding of Machine Learning Practices
  • Experience with NoSQL, Big data and Event Stream Processing
  • Analytical and investigation skills 
  • Experience with messaging services (Apache Kafka, RabbitMQ, JMS etc)
  • You feel strongly about fighting criminals and you are aTransferWise customer 

Not from Hungary? No worries, we'll help you to relocate to Budapest from any part of the world!
