Senior Director, Risk Strategy (Fraud & AML | Fiat + Crypto)
We are looking for an experienced Risk Strategy Leader to lead the design and execution of our end-to-end risk control framework across both fiat and crypto ecosystems.
This role owns fraud prevention, AML strategy, and fund flow risk management, covering the full lifecycle from fiat on/off ramps to on-chain transactions. The ideal candidate can trace and assess end-to-end fund flows, identify suspicious patterns, and drive clear risk decisions and account actions.
This role is not a regulatory-facing MLRO/compliance role, but will work closely with the Philippines (PH) Risk & AML team to ensure strong local execution.
Key Responsibilities
1. End-to-End Risk Strategy (Fraud + AML + Fund Flows)
- Own and drive the overall fraud prevention and AML strategy across fiat and crypto
- Design strategies across the full lifecycle: onboarding, login, fiat deposits/withdrawals, trading, and crypto transfers
- Identify and mitigate risks such as payment fraud, account takeover, mule activity, scams, and money laundering
- Build unified strategies that connect user behavior, transaction activity, and fund flows (fiat + on-chain)
- Balance risk control with user experience and operational efficiency
2. Fiat Risk & Payment Flow Control (New - Core Requirement)
- Design and optimize risk strategies for fiat on-ramp and off-ramp flows (bank transfers, e-wallets, payment rails)
- Monitor and assess incoming and outgoing fiat transactions for fraud and AML risks
- Define review, approval, and escalation mechanisms for high-risk transactions
- Work closely with payment partners and internal teams to manage risk exposure
3. Fund Flow Analysis & Risk Decisioning (Key Differentiator)
- Analyze and trace end-to-end fund flows across fiat and crypto
- Identify suspicious patterns such as layering, structuring, mule networks, and fraud-linked flows
- Make or guide decisions on account-level actions (e.g., allow, block, restrict, freeze, escalate)
- Build frameworks for consistent and explainable risk decision-making
4. On-chain Risk & Tooling (Elliptic Focus)
- Leverage and optimize Elliptic to strengthen on-chain monitoring and AML capabilities
- Translate blockchain intelligence into actionable risk strategies (e.g., scam flows, high-risk wallets)
- Integrate Elliptic signals into internal systems for automated decision-making
- Evaluate other tools (e.g., Chainalysis, TRM) where needed
5. Risk System & Platform Development
- Lead the design of scalable risk infrastructure, including rule engines, decision engines, and case management systems
- Build unified systems that support fraud, AML, and fund flow monitoring
- Drive real-time decisioning and reduce reliance on manual processes
6. Data-driven Optimization
- Identify emerging fraud and AML typologies using data analysis
- Define and track key metrics (fraud loss, detection rate, false positives, operational efficiency)
- Implement testing frameworks (A/B testing, rule tuning, segmentation)
7. Team Leadership & Cross-regional Collaboration
- Build and lead teams across risk strategy, fraud operations, and AML operations
- Work closely with PH Risk & AML team for execution and local alignment
- Partner with Product, Engineering, Compliance, and Operations globally
Requirements
Experience
- 8+ years in fraud risk, AML, payments risk, or risk strategy, with 3+ years in leadership
- Strong experience in payments, crypto exchanges, or fintech platforms
- Proven experience managing fiat transaction risk and/or payment fraud
Core Competencies
- Deep expertise in anti-fraud (ATO, payment fraud, scams) and AML
- Strong understanding of fiat transaction flows, payment systems, and risk controls
- Ability to trace fund flows across fiat and crypto and identify suspicious patterns
- Experience making or guiding account-level risk decisions (block/freeze/restrict)
- Experience designing scalable risk strategies and rule systems
Tools & Data
- Hands-on experience with Elliptic (or similar tools like Chainalysis / TRM)
- Ability to translate tool outputs into risk decision logic
- Strong data skills (SQL required, Python preferred)
Leadership & Collaboration
- Strong leadership and execution capability across functions
- Experience working with regional or distributed teams
- Fluent in English
Nice to Have
- Experience with both fiat payments risk and crypto risk
- Experience analyzing complex fund flows (multi-hop, cross-channel)
- Familiarity with Southeast Asia / Philippines market
- CAMS or similar certifications
What Weâre Looking For
- A full-stack risk leader across fraud, AML, and payments
- Someone who can trace money end-to-end (fiat â crypto â fiat)
- A decision-maker who can translate analysis into clear account actions
- A builder who can turn strategies into scalable systems
- A partner who can work effectively with PH teams
