ABOUT THE ROLE
Trustly guarantees payments in North America. This role leads fraud detection and response in Risk Operations, from finding emerging fraud patterns to stopping them with short-term rules. It also supports the team’s compliance reporting and collections work.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Lead detection and investigation of fraud attacks across return alerts, anomaly alerts and transaction monitoring, and document the modus operandi (MO) of each attack.
- Write, backtest and deploy short-term fraud rules for emerging patterns, monitor their performance, and brief segment risk managers on rule changes and their effect on approval rate.
- Hand emerging patterns to Risk & Fraud Analytics and Data Science for long-term rule and model changes, and own fraud labeling of returned transactions.
- Automate manual detection and investigation work, including with AI tools.
- Support compliance reporting, including NACHA return rate monitoring, AML alert reviews and evidence for suspicious activity reports.
- Support collections workflows, including account reviews before unblocking, agency and legal file submissions, and reconciliation of recovered payments.
- Mentor and train analysts, and review their cases and rules.
- Track and report fraud KPIs: time to detect, time to mitigate, alert hit rate, attack recall and net savings.
WHO YOU ARE
• Experience running adoption or change programs through a distributed champion or advocate network.
• Experience building or restructuring a company wide taxonomy or knowledge base, ideally from a fragmented starting point.
• Experience selecting and implementing a knowledge management or content platform.
• Comfort setting governance standards, such as ownership, review cadence, and access control, and getting other teams to actually follow them.
• Experience working cross functionally to migrate content out of scattered tools and into one system.
• Experience preparing content for AI retrieval or grounding, such as metadata design or structured tagging, a strong plus.
• Background in information architecture, technical writing, or content strategy a plus.
• Familiarity with Claude or similar AI assistants and how they use connected knowledge sources a plus.
