Role

Who you are

  • Prior experience in the Fraud/Risk domain
  • Hands-on experience in SQL and Python
  • Expertise in BI tools such as Tableau/Sigma/Metabase
  • Ability to structure and analyze data, leveraging techniques like EDA and cohort analysis, transform them into understandable and actionable recommendations, and then communicate them effectively across the organization and clients
  • Proficiency in defining, utilizing, and communicating performance metrics
  • Creative problem-solving, strong critical thinking, and a getting-things-done approach

What the job involves

  • Develop and track metrics to measure and monitor the performance of our risk products and the effectiveness of risk management strategies
  • Conduct in-depth analyses to uncover valuable insights contributing to fraud reduction and higher approval rates for our clients
  • Work with engineers on data instrumentation
  • Create and automate self-serve dashboards leveraging BI tools

  • Collaborate on implementing risk mitigation solutions, ensuring alignment with business goals

Our take

Identity and payment fraud is one of the biggest dangers facing online businesses. Sardine is setting out to solve this problem by building the first zero-day fraud prevention technology.

Sardine was founded by an impressive combination of ex-Revolut, Coinbase, Paypal and Uber stars. These credentials have enabled the company to amass considerable funding since its launch. Sardine's technology traces intrinsic behaviour patterns to identify so-called "bad actors" online, and detects fraudsters using machine-learned fraud scores and user behavior biometrics.

Sardine calls itself the world's first FaaS (Fraud Detection as a Service), and its solutions are already drawing business from next-gen crypto and financial service institutions such as Fortress and Incode. Onboarding these institutions and scaling its customer base at pace will ensure that Sardine maintains its frontrunner position.
