Role
Who you are

What the job involves

- This person will help us maintain compliance with Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements, identify potential fraud, and ensure a frictionless onboarding experience for our users
- You’ll work closely with both the support and risk functions, reviewing user profiles, flagging suspicious activity, and supporting our efforts to build a more secure ecosystem for our merchants and shoppers
- Review and verify identity documents, business registrations, and customer information in accordance with KYC requirements
- Identify and investigate high-risk profiles, suspicious behavior, or documentation inconsistencies
- Analyze and verify information using public records, databases, and open-source intelligence
- Collaborate with the Risk and Support teams to escalate and resolve complex fraud or identity-related cases
- Use tools like Persona and internal systems to monitor and manage KYC workflows
- Help define and improve internal KYC processes, playbooks, and quality assurance standards
- Stay informed about evolving regulations and best practices related to identity verification, fraud prevention, and compliance
- Respond to internal and external inquiries related to user identity and KYC status
Our take
Designed to replace existing checkout models and make buying on any device easy and safe, Bolt provides a one-click checkout solution. Its online shopping software is utilized by companies like Brooks Brothers and Forever 21. As well as supporting all major card providers and alternative payment methods like PayPal, customers also don't need a username or password. This reduces cart abandonment and increases merchant conversion rates.
The company has seen impressive growth, annually processing more than $1 billion in retail transactions across its 300+ retailers. While Bolt has won the race against Google, who tried, and failed with Google Checkout, there are other 'one-click' competitors to watch out for, including Square, which has over 30 million monthly active users.
