What You’ll Do
Fraud is one of the largest challenges plaguing financial institutions today, with an estimated $27 billion in annual losses from identity theft alone. In addition to identity theft, there is a growing trend of synthetic IDs, manipulated IDs, and scam incidents.
Koalafi is continuing to scale its payments and financing platform across direct-to-consumer and merchant channels. As fraud attack strategies evolve alongside this growth, the company is investing in stronger and more adaptive fraud defenses. The Manager of Business Analytics – Fraud will report directly to the Director of Fraud Strategy & Analytics and play a central role in developing and optimizing Koalafi’s fraud risk strategy.
This role will lead analytical efforts to develop and iterate fraud policies, evaluate new fraud defense capabilities and data sources, and strengthen fraud monitoring and reporting frameworks. The position will focus on improving Koalafi’s resilience against evolving fraud trends while enabling responsible growth across new products, channels, and partners. This individual will serve as a key analytical partner to Product, Engineering, Risk Operations, and other cross-functional teams to ensure fraud controls are effectively embedded in customer and merchant workflows.
