• Contribute to incident reviews and post-mortem analysis to strengthen future fraud prevention efforts.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Finance, Risk Management, Data Analytics, or related field.
• 2–5 years of experience in fraud operations, risk analysis, or trust & safety within a SaaS or digital payments environment.
• Familiarity with subscription billing platforms (e.g., Stripe, Recurly, Chargebee, Zuora).
• Hands-on experience with KYC/AML platforms and fraud detection tools.
• Working knowledge of compliance frameworks and regulatory standards applicable to SaaS companies.
• Strong analytical skills; proficiency in Excel, and risk reporting tools.
• Exceptional attention to detail and problem-solving skills.
