Technical Lead, Risk

Our mission
We're making Africa the first cashless continent.
In 2017, nearly 60% of adults in sub-Saharan Africa had no bank account.
That's for good reason—the fees are too high, the closest branch can be miles away, and nobody takes cards.
Without access to financial institutions, people are forced to keep their savings under the mattress.
Small business owners rely on lenders who charge extortionate rates. Parents spend hours waiting in line to pay school fees in cash.

We're solving this by building financial services that just work: no account fees, instantly available, and accepted everywhere.
In places where electricity, water and roads don't always work, you can still send money with Wave.
In November 2017, we launched a mobile app in Senegal for cash deposit, withdrawal, and peer-to-peer and business payments.
In 2019, we expanded to Cote d'Ivoire.
Now we have millions of users and are growing fast. Our goal is to make Africa the first cashless continent.
And that's where you come in...

How you’ll help us achieve it
We’re forming a risk team to enable us to continue building great financial infrastructure for millions of users while protecting them from scammers and fraudsters.
We’re looking for someone with experience building anti-fraud systems to set the team’s technical direction and provide mentorship.

You’ll be responsible for:
- Developing and maintaining a vision for what Wave’s anti-fraud technology will eventually look like
- Working with the team’s product manager to prioritize the best next steps towards that end state
- Scoping and designing new tools and features to protect our users
- Designing and building the data infrastructure you need to analyze and score fraud risks
- Maintaining a high bar for code and design quality on the team
- Mentoring coworkers to become better engineers

Requirements
- You care a lot about working on software whose mission you can believe in.
- You have at least 4 years of professional experience as a software engineer.
- You have experience deploying machine learning models or similar systems to production.

About engineering at Wave

We value:
- Boring technology
- Simple, predictable designs
- Deeply understanding our tools and systems
- Being tenacious in the face of tricky problems
- Constantly trying to improve, as engineers and colleagues

Our stack (note that we will train you on any of these—you don't need prior experience—and you probably won't work much/at all with the frontend parts):
- machine learning infra: your choice :)
- infrastructure: GCP / Terraform
- orchestration: Kubernetes
- database: Postgres
- data warehouse: Snowflake + Fivetran + dbt
- backend: Python 3 (+ mypy)
- API layer: GraphQL
- android frontend: Kotlin/Jetpack
- iOS frontend: Swift/SwiftUI
- web frontend: TypeScript/React

Key Details
- You can work remotely from anywhere (between UTC -5 and +4) with reliable Internet access.
- Every two to four months, you’ll travel to Africa for a one-week retreat with the rest of Wave’s remote team. (Wave covers all costs.)
- This role involves participating in an on-call rotation. (Details of the rotation depend on which team you join.)
- Our salaries are competitive and are calculated using a transparent formula. For this role, depending on your level of experience and location, we offer a salary range of 124,000-170,000 USD (or local equivalent), plus equity targeted to be worth 4-6x your salary.
- Major benefits:
- Subsidized health insurance for you and your dependents and retirement contributions (both vary from country-to-country)
- 6 months fully paid parental leave and subsidized fertility assistance
- Unlimited vacation with a 20-day minimum requirement
- $10,000 annual charitable donation matching

Our team
- We have a continuously growing in-country team in Senegal, Cote D'Ivoire and Uganda, plus remote team members spread across the world. We're deeply passionate about our mission of bringing great financial services to the people who need them most.
- We foster autonomy for our employees. Y
ou'll learn to own your own projects at every stage, from understanding the problem to monitoring your solution in production.
- We’re backed by world-class investors including Khosla Ventures, Founders Fund, Y Combinator, and the cofounders of PayPal.
