Civil engineer and fraud/KYC analyst skilled in data-driven risk management and client-focused solutions.
What I'm looking for
I am a civil engineer turned compliance and fraud professional with hands-on experience in KYC/AML, fraud analysis, and real estate data collection. I combine technical understanding of built environments with strong analytical capabilities to detect risk and deliver practical solutions.
In my roles I have monitored financial activity for signs of fraud, reviewed account documentation for regulatory compliance, and conducted risk assessments for private, corporate, PEP, and high-net-worth clients. I leverage specialized software and data analysis to identify anomalous patterns and support investigations.
I have supported commercial estate projects by gathering and organizing building data, coordinating meetings with developers, and maintaining accurate datasets using tools like Excel and mapping platforms. I also have experience in customer-facing roles, managing client communications and improving service delivery.
I hold certificates in AML and Sanctions from Udemy and a Civil Engineering degree, and I bring strong communication, teamwork, presentation, and computer skills to roles that require diligence, strategic thinking, and results-oriented execution.
