Fraud Data Analyst

Paris, Paris, France

The mission of the fraud team is to allow Alma to develop rapidly and serenely, and to ensure the most sustainable growth possible. We want to allow the greatest number of customers to use our solution while guaranteeing a controlled risk.

We are exposed to 3 different types of risk:

1️⃣ Customer fraud: The fraudster will use all the means at his disposal to never honor his payments and abuse Alma's processes.

2️⃣ Merchant Fraud: A fraction of our merchants try to bypass Alma's due-diligence and monitoring in order to defraud innocent buyers or Alma.

3️⃣ Compliance: Customer or merchant uses Alma for money laundering or terrorist financing purposes.

Beyond our scope of activity, our ambition is to change the rules of risk management in the payment industry. This translates into a few principles that we try to apply in each of our actions:

  • Embrace a human-centric approach to risk and fraud. We recognize that differentiating between a bad payer, a high-risk merchant, and a fraudster is essential.
  • Deter fraudsters from targeting Alma while ensuring a seamless payment experience for our customers.
  • Ensure strict compliance with regulatory requirements, such as Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism (AML-CFT), as Alma serves as the final line of defense.
