@hendrachia
I monitor merchant risk, investigate payment issues, and strengthen compliance controls across digital payments.
What I'm looking for
I've monitored merchant portfolios, transaction performance and operational risk across Durian Pay, Billfazz, Gramedia Digital, and UniPin. My work has included investigating transaction issues, reviewing onboarding documentation, identifying trends and anomalies, and escalating matters with Compliance, Finance, IT, Data, Product, and partner teams.
I'm transitioning into an analyst-level payments risk and compliance role in Ireland, supported by an MSc Finance and practical experience in digital payments. I bring hands-on knowledge of AML/CFT, risk-based assessment, due diligence, financial regulation, Excel/VBA modelling, and operational controls.
