## What I'm looking for

```text
I’m looking for senior opportunities in AML, EDD, financial crime, compliance operations, or related risk functions within fintech, payments, banking, or digital assets, including Europe-based or remote international teams.
```

## About

```text
At CoinMetro, I conduct complex AML, KYC, and EDD reviews across fiat and crypto activity, including PEP and adverse-media investigations, risk reassessments, and suspicious-activity escalations. I also built and own the KYC quality-assurance framework, setting review standards, metrics, error tolerances, feedback, and corrective actions.

My payments work at Fluz covered full-cycle chargebacks, disputes, fraud reviews, representments, ACH cases, and funds recovery. I build evidence packages, draft rebuttal narratives, improve SOPs, and support high-value customers through urgent payment issues.

I’m based in Tallinn and exploring senior AML, EDD, financial crime, compliance operations, and risk opportunities across fintech, payments, banking, and digital assets. Alongside compliance work, I support SMEs with payment-risk operations, research, outreach, and practical growth support.
