Job Description
We are seeking a talented quantitative developer to join our Treasury Markets Data Science team. This role focuses on owning and operating the production infrastructure behind our FX pricing, risk, and trading systems with the opportunity to broaden the scope of work into traditional quantitative research.
About The Role
You will join the Treasury Markets Data Science team and own the quantitative infrastructure that powers how Wise manages FX risk across over USD 250 bn+ in annual FX volume. You will work with quants, traders, analysts, product managers and engineers to price, hedge, manage and scale FX operations in real time.
The team runs a Python‑first, production‑grade quant platform: real‑time curve construction, multi‑instrument pricing, risk analytics and trading strategy. Your primary focus will be keeping these systems reliable, performant and well‑engineered, while contributing to the quantitative models themselves as you grow into the domain.
What You’ll Own
- Python microservices running quantitative models in production
- Monitoring, alerting and reliability for real‑time pricing and risk systems
- Shared quant libraries used across multiple services
- CI/CD pipelines, deployment and operational excellence
- Incident response and root‑cause analysis for production issues
Where you’ll grow
- Real‑time curve construction (yield curves, FX forwards, vol surfaces)
- Pricing models for new instruments and products
- Trading strategy development and optimisation
- Risk modelling alongside the Risk team (VaR, stress testing, scenario analysis)
- Back‑testing frameworks and model validation
- Customer behaviour modelling, pricing strategy and product launch support
- Collaboration with product teams to translate quantitative insights into customer‑facing decisions
Qualifications
- 4+ years building and maintaining production Python systems
- Strong experience with microservices, databases, and production infrastructure
- Experience with streaming systems, real‑time data pipelines or event‑driven architectures (Kafka, Flink, Redis, etc.)
- Quantitative background – maths, physics, engineering or finance – with the ability to read and reason about models
- Experience with testing, monitoring and debugging complex systems under load
- A product mindset focused on user needs
- Clear communication and cross‑functional collaboration skills
It’s a bonus if you are familiar with
- FX or financial markets experience
- Term‑structure modelling, stochastic calculus or Monte Carlo methods
- Interest rate curve bootstrapping
- Algorithmic execution experience
- Data lake or warehouse technologies (Snowflake, Iceberg, Spark, etc.)
