Fraud Analytics Specialist

BettingJobs is working with a well established iGaming operator seeking to expand their remote based team with a proactive Fraud Analytics Specialist.
This role is fully remote from LATAM only.
As part of the Fraud BI team, your mission is to ensure that our defense systems are smarter, faster, and more data-driven than the threats that may be faced. You are the analytical engine that powers our Fraud Operations. You don't just wait for fraud to happen; you hunt for the subtle patterns, technical anomalies, and behavioral clusters that signal risk.

Key Responsibilities:

Detection Logic & Behavioral Profiling

• Gameplay Intelligence: Perform granular deep-dives into Live Casino and Sportsbook datasets to detect sophisticated advantage play, collusion, and betting syndicates by identifying sequences that defy standard mathematical probability.
• Behavioral Social Clusters: Engineer complex SQL logic to detect "linked" activity through deep behavioral markers, tracking synchronized bet timing, identical stake-step patterns, and coordinated game-hopping across seemingly unrelated accounts.
• Tactical Detection Prototypes: Design and iterate on technical "red-flag" triggers for specific gameplay exploits (e.g., hedge betting, chip dumping, or professionalized botting), surfacing high-conviction cases for the Ops team to investigate immediately.

Operational Enablement (BI x Fraud Ops)

• Collaborate with Fraud Ops to understand their pain points and provide analytical support that speed up investigation times.
• Develop the automated logic for safeguards, using gameplay-based milestones to trigger immediate protective actions.
• Conduct post-mortem analyses on major fraud incidents to identify gaps in our current data coverage.

Data Engineering Collaboration

• Work with Analytics Engineers to ensure that critical fraud signals are accurately modeled in our data warehouse.
• Define requirements for new fraud-related data sources and ensure data quality/integrity for all risk-related KPIs.

Monitoring & Alerting

• Own part of the lifecycle of a fraud alert: from initial hypothesis and SQL prototyping to production monitoring and false-positive tuning.
• Monitor on the "Health of the Shield"—tracking detection rates, false-positive ratios, and the time-to-action for the Ops team.

Must-Haves

• 3+ years of experience in Analytics: in iGaming, Payments, or Crypto.
• Advanced SQL (BigQuery/Snowflake): Expert ability to model complex gameplay sequences and behavioral signatures to uncover hidden fraud patterns.
• Analysis Recognition: A proven track record of identifying clusters or anomalies within large, messy datasets.
• Operational Mindset: You understand that a data insight is only useful if a Fraud Agent can actually use it to make a decision in seconds.
• Technical Curiosity: You want to know how the "engine" works—how data flows from the site to the warehouse and where it can be manipulated.
