Fraud Analyst and dispute resolution professional in fintech, combining fraud trend analysis and customer-focused outcomes.
What I'm looking for
I’m a fintech Fraud Analyst focused on investigating suspicious and fraudulent transactions, identifying root causes, and supporting fund recovery. I monitor transactions, analyze fraud trends for anomalies and emerging threats, and help limit financial loss and liability through fraud prevention strategies.
In dispute and chargeback work, I handle complex customer issues end-to-end—ensuring timely responses within SLA, engaging settlement teams for prompt moderation of exposures, and delivering clear, conclusive resolutions for POS-related merchant and banking service disputes. I conduct root cause analysis to reduce repeat disputes and collaborate across legal, compliance, risk management, settlement, payment reconciliation, POS machine teams, and technical units.
I also bring strong customer service operations experience, using customer service software to manage interactions, track customer satisfaction, and prepare daily/weekly/monthly team reports while ensuring KPIs are met. I treat mail escalations and manage refunds processes end-to-end, including communicating with merchants and acquirers for refund and dispute-related support.
Beyond operations, I’ve led training and enablement as a Training Administrator—developing and implementing training curricula, scheduling sessions, supervising budgets, and preparing training materials to build product knowledge and improve customer service performance. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Actuarial Science and I’m currently pursuing a Master’s in Operations Research.
