I lead payments risk, fraud, compliance, and financial crime operations at scale.

What I'm looking for

I'm looking to scale secure payment ecosystems by leading fraud, financial crime, compliance, and operations teams. I value cross-functional work that improves risk decisioning, checkout conversion, automation, and customer trust.

At Holidu, I lead Fraud & Financial Crime, Chargebacks, Payouts, and Compliance for a global payment ecosystem, owning executive-level risk strategy, vendor selection, budgets, and a team of five. I built a company-wide risk management strategy with Claude Code and automate fraud, payout, and dunning workflows.

Across FARFETCH and EBANX, I've reduced decline rates from 25% to 5%, cut chargeback rates from 15% to 0.9%, and improved checkout conversion through PSD2/3DS optimization. I build fraud and payment operations that protect revenue without punishing good customers.
