CAREERS AT PINGWIRE

Careers at Pingwire

Built for Good.
Come build it.

We're a team of senior business professionals in Stockholm building the platform banks and fintechs use to stop financial crime. The work is technical, the stakes are real, and the standard is high.

STOCKHOLM · ÖSTERMALMENGLISH-FIRST
WHY THIS WORK MATTERS

Some of the transactions we screen are crimes. Finding them is the job.

UNODC estimates that 2 to 5% of global GDP is laundered every year. Behind that number are trafficking, fraud, and sanctions evasion, and on the other side compliance teams outnumbered by the alerts they have to review. We build for those teams who make the world a slightly better place.

REAL CONSEQUENCES

Behind every alert is a person

A missed transaction funds harm. A false alert could freeze someone's salary. Precision is not a metric here. It is the whole job.

OUR USERS

Outnumbered by their queue

Compliance teams can review thousands of alerts a week. Every hour we give back is an hour spent on the cases that matter.

PROOF, NOT PROMISES

Auditable by design

Every rule change is versioned and every decision leaves a trail. When a regulator asks, our customers can answer.

HOW WE WORK

Senior team, short path to production.

  • English is our business language. Swedish is spoken at the office too, but you don't need it.

  • You make the call in your own area. We ask for the reasoning behind it, not permission before it. 

  • Bring us a better idea and we will try it. New approaches get room here, not resistance.

WHY WORK AT PINGWIRE

Four things you can count on here.

OWNERSHIP

Real responsibility from day one

You own your area end to end, from the decision to the deploy. Nobody hands you a ticket queue.

EXECUTION

Build it, then find out

We would rather ship a small version this week than debate the perfect one for a month. Test, learn, iterate.

THE TEAM

Colleagues who set the pace

Everyone here is senior enough to be trusted and driven enough to raise the bar around them.

CULTURE

No nonsense

Few meetings, no politics, no performance theatre. Say what you think and back it with reasons.

BEFORE YOU APPLY

This is not the right job for you if…

We would rather you find that out now than in month three.

  • You want a large, specialised team. You will own things outside your title.

  • You want the domain to stay in the background. AML is detailed, regulated work and you will learn it.

  • You want to move fast without a paper trail. Everything we ship has to survive an audit.
