The AML Risk team, within the AML Squad at Wise, builds detection systems and controls that help identify potential money laundering and terrorist financing activity.
We use data and our understanding of criminal behaviour to create effective detection controls and useful alerts. Criminal activity evolves quickly, so we continuously improve our controls as new risks appear — aiming to detect more real risk, reduce false positives, and keep the customer experience smooth.
In this role, you will contribute to risk detection and alert creation by owning components and medium-sized projects, working closely with a cross-functional group of engineers, product managers, data scientists, analysts, and AML subject matter experts.
Your work will directly improve how Wise detects financial crime. You’ll help detect more real risk, reduce false alerts, and avoid unnecessary friction for legitimate customers — supporting Wise’s ability to grow safely across products and regions while keeping money movement fast, cheap, and transparent.
