I investigate complex AML alerts, sanctions risks, and fraud patterns across EMEA financial crime operations.
What I'm looking for
At Uber Technologies' Center of Excellence, I investigate complex transaction alerts and multi-category risk queues across EMEA, covering high-risk jurisdictions, age-restricted commodities, stored-value products, and suspicious user-to-merchant activity.
I extract and assess large transactional datasets to identify anomalies, account takeover indicators, structuring, and behavioral risk patterns. I document investigation outcomes, resolve false positives, escalate true positives, and prepare evidence for Suspicious Activity Report filings.
I also conduct sanctions screening against Dow Jones, OFAC, Interpol, and global watchlists, assess PEP/RCA matches, and perform Enhanced Due Diligence for high-risk entities and countries. Earlier at Uber, I assessed global platform partners through the Partner Risk Rating Model and completed KYC and KYB reviews.
I'm ACAMS-certified with an academic background in Internal Security, organized crime, and criminology. As a team POC, I support complex escalations, onboarding, and practical case-resolution training while maintaining strong quality and operational results.
