Kara Dosa
@karadosa
Risk & Fraud Specialist shaping safe growth through high-volume investigations and compliance.
What I'm looking for
I’ve spent most of my career in fast-paced operations roles—first in technical support, then in risk and fraud analysis at Stripe. I’m comfortable working through complex problems, handling high volumes, and making judgment calls under pressure.
At Stripe via Teleperformance, I investigated Tier 1 and Tier 2 risk alerts by analyzing transactional activity and account behaviour, conducting detailed account reviews to support risk-based decision-making across a high-volume case pipeline (about 50–80 cases per day). I execute account actions such as monitoring, restrictions, and escalations in line with internal risk frameworks and controls while maintaining strong SLA performance, and I’ve also trained in fraud prevention and AML principles to strengthen financial crime awareness and detection capabilities.
