Why this role exists:

This role exists to protect our financial flows and optimize payment health in real time. You’ll help us minimize fraud exposure and operational friction by owning end-to-end payment processing analysis, deposit/withdrawal risk decisions, and transaction monitoring.

What you’ll drive:

Risk Analysis & Transactional Decision-Making

• Analyze full transactional flows across deposits, withdrawals, and payment histories to spot anomalies, suspicious behavior, and operational errors.

• Review high-value and high-risk transactions in real time, making firm, evidence-based approve/decline decisions to control financial exposure.

• Identify payment fraud indicators, potential chargeback risks, payment method abuse, and mismatches between deposit sources and withdrawal destinations.

Operational Execution & Case Management

• Investigate complex payment cases involving failed, pending, unusual, or declined transactions across various payment methods.

• Manage multiple urgent cases simultaneously, using risk severity and potential financial impact to set priorities.

• Maintain clear, structured, and audit-ready documentation for all reviewed cases, decisions, and risk actions.

System Optimization & Feedback

• Distinguish root causes quickly among genuine payment fraud, platform configuration gaps, gateway technical failures, or provider-side issues.

• Identify operational friction, missing rules, or system logic gaps and submit structured feedback to improve risk tool setups.

• Respond immediately to operational spikes and risk incidents without sacrificing accuracy or thoroughness.

Stakeholder & Cross-Team Collaboration

• Communicate transactional findings, decisions, and necessary interventions clearly to Finance, Support, Tech, and Fraud teams.

• Follow cases through to full resolution, taking clear ownership and escalating complex scenarios promptly when higher authorization is required.

• Clear cross-team communication skills to explain complex risk rationale concisely.
