- Translate these patterns of activity into ad-hoc strategies to block and prevent fraudulent activity
- Develop insights to identify fraud and AML trends across Neo's customer base
- Review suspicious events and identify where additional information is required to onboard customers
- Work closely with the Fincrimes Business Analyst team to provide real-time protection for our customers and Neo against fraud, anti-money laundering, and financial crimes
- Investigate system alerts and escalations from the customer experience team to identify instances of fraud and financial crimes (e.g. money laundering)
- Submit cases to regulators, financial institution partners, and law enforcement for potential legal and/or criminal charges

Who we're looking for:

- Ability to work collaboratively within a team environment
- Intellectually curious, and enjoys asking questions to identify the root cause of problems
- Adept with navigating intermediate computer systems and engines
- Capable of visually identifying and communicating patterns that do not fit known event patterns.
- University Degree in Business, Economics, Engineering, Statistics, or other relevant fields is an asset
- Experience in fraud and financial crime detection and/or anti-money laundering is an asset
- Experience with BI platforms and data visualization tools (PowerBI, Tableau, Domo, Qlik, etc.) is an asset

What will help you succeed:

- You are able to put yourself in the shoes of criminals and try to think as they do so you can better defend against them
- You are highly analytical, have strong attention to detail, and the ability to tackle complex problems
- You have a keen attention to detail, and like digging into the weeds to find the source of a problem
- You have entrepreneurial DNA - you're excited to build a business from the ground up, are comfortable making decisions in the face of ambiguity, and aren't discouraged by the inevitable challenges that will arise along the way
- You take ownership of your work and outcomes
- You're an effective communicator with strong organizational skills
- You’re passionate about building world-class products with a world-class team

At Neo, you’ll be working with industry-leading technology that changes the way we live and redefines Canada’s financial future.
