We’re unable to support relocation or visa sponsorship for this role. Candidates will need to already be based in the UK (or able to work from the UK)

Product Eligibility team is a fairly new team that was formed under Regional Platform Squad. We are one of the longest-running squads in the company building the platform for the core domains of Wise - Transfer, Payout and Partner Integrations. Besides that we are supporting product teams to extend the Platform capabilities for the new products and the new markets.

Product Eligibility team's main goal is to help Wise accurately determine which products and features are available to a particular customer.

To achieve this, we need to make sure we have a clear understanding of where our customers reside or operate business. As such, one of the first big challenges the team will tackle is overhauling of how Wise captures and validates customer's residence, present location and address information.
