Scientists, neutralizes active attacks, gathers requirements for operational tooling, and leads
incidents. The team  works directly with impacted merchants to resolve technical incidents
and policy abuse rapidly. Operating primarily across Eastern, Pacific and Western European time
zones, these team members regularly coordinate with global stakeholders across the world.
What you’ll do
You'll play a critical role in safeguarding our financial ecosystem by investigating
high-risk accounts and identifying complex patterns of fraud during incidents. You will lead
incident response for product abuse and fraud events, conducting deep-dive analyses to identify
root causes. By collaborating cross-functionally, you will drive improvements that enhance our
fraud detection and prevention strategies at scale. Your expertise will be essential in
automating response processes through agentic approaches, allowing us to safeguard merchants
and neutralize threats with speed and precision.
