Job description

Java Developer

We’re looking for a Java Developer to join our team in Tallinn. The role is a unique opportunity to help us catch the bad guys who are trying to abuse TransferWise.

We are building money without borders for people who live global lives. We’re the fairest, easiest way to manage your money across borders and we need your help to build this further. More about us and our recent growth: 

https://techcrunch.com/2019/05/21/three-point-five-unicorns/

This role will give you the opportunity to:

  • Choose your own path to success - you’ll have the freedom to define the vision and the responsibility for making it happen
  • Be flexible in how and where you work, we understand everyone needs a little something different so we’ll do our best to make it happen
  • Travel to work with our teams in London and Budapest as well as meet various partners and organizations when needed
  • Inspire teams with your ideas, knowledge and self-starting attitude

A bit about you: 

  • You’ll be passionate about product and user experience - customers are at the heart of what you do and that empathy drives your decisions
  • You’ll have solid Java 8 knowledge and hands-on experience
  • You have high coding standards (TDD, Clean Code)
  • You know your way around dependencies, have experience in performance tuning and have used DB abstraction layers like Hibernate or messaging services (Apache Kafka, RabbitMQ, JMS)
  • You have experience working with Spring, Spring Boot and REST microservices
  • You have worked for several years within a production environment

Some extra skills that would be awesome: 

  • You have experience with financial systems
  • You have knowledge of PostgreSQL, advanced types and query features
  • Perhaps you have experience with machine learning or other data driven development experience
  • You know your way around event driven architecture
  • You have some Groovy experience

Some of your benefits: 

Apart from the all-expenses-paid company trips, stock options in one of Europe’s most hotly tipped startups, a laptop and team lunches every other Thursday, you won’t get much in the way of extras. However, we will give you 28 days holiday a year (plus public holidays), a fun, friendly atmosphere, plenty of opportunities to grow and the chance to be part of our irreversible change in how money moves across the world.

Not from Hungary? - No stress, we will help you (and your family) with full relocation from any part of the world!

About TransferWise

Since 2011, we’ve had a clear mission: money without borders. Built by and for people who live global lives, we’re the fairest, easiest way to manage your money across borders.

We’re just at the beginning of our story and we’re growing at an incredible pace. We won’t stop until anyone, anywhere can send, spend and receive money wherever they are, whatever they’re doing. There’s still heaps to do and we can’t do it alone.

Our People:

At TransferWise, you’ll be joining a movement of people who believe in a better, fairer, more transparent way of moving money around the world. You’ll collaborate to do your best work and take on problems that no one has looked at before.

How we work:

At TransferWise our strategy emerges from the collective brainpower of all our people, who are organised in dozens of independent, autonomous teams. Teams stay closest to our customers, so they choose what problems to solve and where to spend the most time.

You’ll experience radical levels of ownership and empowerment within your role. Plus the opportunity to see the direct impact of your work on our customers.
