What you’ll do:
- Lead a team of data analysts dedicated to building and maintaining the BI infrastructure for fraud detection, risk monitoring, and compliance reporting.
- Partner directly with our Fraud, Compliance, and Risk teams to provide tooling, ad-hoc analysis, and deep-dive investigations into payment risk, bonus abuse, multi-accounting, and collusion.
- Develop and own key dashboards and reports that monitor Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) such as chargeback rates, KYC verification funnels, and responsible gaming triggers for auditors and state regulatory bodies.
- Continuously evaluate and enhance our fraud detection models, risk mitigation strategies, and compliance reporting frameworks to adapt to the evolving DFS landscape.
- Proactively identify emerging fraud typologies and risk vectors, translating data-driven insights into actionable prevention strategies.
- Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, including Payments, Customer Experience, Legal, and Product, to ensure risk and compliance considerations are integrated throughout the user lifecycle.
- Streamline workflows for fraud investigations and compliance audits, optimizing resource allocation to enhance the team’s efficiency and effectiveness.
What you have:
- 3+ years of experience in risk analytics, fraud detection, or a related data-focused field, preferably within the online gaming, Daily Fantasy Sports, or fintech industries.
- 2+ years of experience in a management role, with a proven track record of leading analysts and delivering key data projects.
- Deep understanding of fraud vectors and risk management principles in an online transactional environment, including payment fraud, identity verification, and bonus abuse.
- Strong conceptual knowledge of Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Know Your Customer (KYC), and Responsible Gaming (RG) principles and regulations.
- Proven ability to draw actionable insights from complex datasets and present them clearly to senior management and cross-functional partners.
- Expert proficiency in using SQL, Excel, and Python to extract, manipulate, and analyze data. Experience with BI visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, Looker, Power BI) is a plus.
- Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain complex analytical or technical concepts to non-technical audiences.
- Detail-oriented with an exceptional standard for accuracy in data analysis and reporting.
