About the role: 
 
We are looking for a Data Analyst who combines strong SQL and analytical skills with business and compliance understanding.

This is a data-first, business-impact role where you will:
  • Independently analyze transaction and risk data
  • Generate insights
  • translate those insights into risk rules, system logic, and operational decisions
 
 
  • Analyze large-scale transaction datasets using SQL to identify fraud, AML, and compliance risk patterns.
  • Translate analytical findings into clear business actions (rule tuning, thresholds, workflows, policy inputs).
  • Work with Compliance, Risk, and Product teams to convert regulatory requirements into data logic and system rules.
  • Evaluate effectiveness of risk controls using data (alert rates, false positives, precision/recall, conversion impact).
  • Design, build, and maintain dashboards and reporting that drive decision-making.
  • Perform deep-dive analyses and investigations to support financial crime initiatives.
  • Identify gaps and inefficiencies in current processes and recommend data-driven improvements.
  • Partner with engineering to implement scalable and auditable decisioning systems.
  • 3–6 years of experience in data analytics, risk, fraud, compliance, or financial services.
  • Strong proficiency in SQL (mandatory) ability to independently extract, join, and analyze large datasets.
  • Proven ability to connect data insights to business decisions and outcomes.
  • Experience building dashboards / visualizations (Tableau, Power BI, Looker, or similar).
  • Strong analytical thinking with a problem-solving, data-to-decision mindset.
  • Ability to work across technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Experience in fraud detection, AML, or transaction monitoring systems.
  • Exposure to rule engines, decision systems, or risk platforms.
  • Familiarity with Python (Pandas, NumPy) for data analysis.
  • Understanding of experimentation / threshold tuning / performance optimization.
  • You independently query and break down complex datasets without relying on others.
  • You move from data → insight → action quickly and clearly.
  • You improve risk systems with measurable impact (e.g., reduced false positives, improved detection rates).
  • You think in terms of signals, patterns, and system behavior, not just reports.
  •  
    What We’re Really Looking For
     
  • You don’t wait for data - you pull it yourself.
  • You don’t just present numbers -you recommend actions.
  • You can connect data → risk insight → rule/system change → measurable outcome.
  • You are comfortable operating across data, business, and system logic.
