Data Analyst – Risk & Compliance
You will analyze large-scale transaction datasets using SQL to identify fraud, AML, and compliance risk patterns. You will translate your analytical findings into clear business actions such as rule tuning, thresholds, workflows, and policy inputs. You will work with Compliance, Risk, and Product teams to convert regulatory requirements into data logic and system rules, and evaluate the effectiveness of risk controls using data like alert rates, false positives, precision/recall, and conversion impact. You will 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. You will also partner with engineering to implement scalable and auditable decisioning systems.
