Narrative:
We were level at FL190 and given a climb to FL290. [The captain] repeated back FL290. I started the climb and [the captain] got up to shut the curtain and check on the passenger. Passing through FL220; the controller asked me what altitude I was at and I replied. The controller said I was only cleared to FL210; and to stop climb. I was climbing at approximately 2700 fpm; stopped the climb at about FL22.9 and started a descent back to FL220; which is about where I was told to stop climb. As I was descending; the aircraft made an uncommanded roll to the right; to approximately 30 degrees. The aircraft righted itself but snapped over to a left bank at a high roll rate. I disconnected the autopilot and assertively brought the aircraft back level. The aircraft started another high roll rate bank to the right and I made an aggressive input to stop the roll rate as we would have otherwise been in an unusual attitude situation. The captain made it back to his seat and advised me we were in someone's wake. The captain took over the radios. We got a new altitude assignment; and were asked if we had an RA. We responded; we did not; and the captain reiterated that we had been given FL290 and responded with FL290. The controller advised that they would look in to it. Nothing more was said; and the flight continued normally.
