PROTECT EVERY TRANSACTION. ANTICIPATE EVERY THREAT.
We are looking for a highly capable Fintech Cyber Risk & Transaction Security Specialist to strengthen the security architecture surrounding digital financial services.
Financial technology operates in an environment where billions in value can move through interconnected systems within seconds.
Security therefore cannot be reactive.
It must be predictive, continuous and engineered into the financial ecosystem from the beginning.
This position will focus on identifying cyber and transaction-security vulnerabilities before they become material threats while developing sophisticated mechanisms for protecting digital financial infrastructure.
SECURITY DOMAINS
TRANSACTION SECURITY
Develop mechanisms for monitoring unusual transaction behavior and identifying potential compromise.
CYBER RISK
Assess vulnerabilities across financial applications, APIs, infrastructure and interconnected systems.
FRAUD INTELLIGENCE
Analyze behavioral signals that may indicate fraudulent activity, account compromise or coordinated attacks.
IDENTITY & ACCESS
Strengthen authentication, authorization and privileged-access controls across critical financial environments.
THREAT INTELLIGENCE
Monitor emerging cyber threats affecting fintech, payments and digital-banking ecosystems.
CORE RESPONSIBILITIES
-
Conduct cybersecurity and transaction-risk assessments.
-
Identify vulnerabilities across fintech applications and infrastructure.
-
Develop financial transaction-security frameworks.
-
Analyze suspicious behavioral and transactional patterns.
-
Support fraud-intelligence initiatives.
-
Evaluate API and integration security.
-
Develop security-monitoring and incident-detection strategies.
-
Collaborate with engineering teams on secure architecture.
-
Establish security controls for cloud-based financial platforms.
-
Conduct threat modelling and attack-surface assessments.
-
Support incident-response and business-continuity planning.
-
Develop security-performance metrics and executive reporting.
-
Monitor emerging cyber threats and recommend preventative measures.
TECHNICAL ENVIRONMENT
Cyber Risk | Threat Intelligence | SIEM | API Security | Cloud Security | Identity & Access Management | Encryption | Fraud Analytics | Network Security | Security Architecture | Transaction Monitoring | Incident Response
THE PROFESSIONAL WE SEEK
You are analytical, technically rigorous and commercially aware.
You understand that protecting fintech infrastructure requires more than perimeter security. It requires understanding how financial systems communicate, how customers behave, how transactions move and where an attacker is most likely to exploit the ecosystem.
Experience in fintech cybersecurity, banking security, payment infrastructure, fraud technology, cloud security or financial-risk environments is strongly preferred.
Compensation: Premium specialist package with performance incentives, professional development and benefits aligned with technical expertise.
