Job Overview
SPECIALIST
Fintech Cybersecurity, Fraud & Financial Intelligence Specialist
Location: Saudi Arabia — Remote / GCC Regional Coverage
Seniority Level: Senior Specialist
Employment Type: Full-time, Permanent
Industry Focus: Fintech • Cybersecurity • Fraud Prevention • Payments • AI • Financial Intelligence
PROTECT THE TRUST BEHIND EVERY TRANSACTION
Every successful digital financial transaction carries an invisible requirement:
Trust.
Customers expect their identity, money, information, and financial activity to remain protected regardless of transaction volume, device, geography, or attack sophistication.
We are looking for an accomplished Specialist to strengthen the security and intelligence capabilities surrounding modern fintech environments.
This is a role for a professional who understands that financial cybersecurity extends beyond traditional perimeter defence.
It requires continuous intelligence.
Continuous detection.
Continuous adaptation.
YOUR MISSION
You will help identify, analyse, prevent, and respond to financial threats across digital platforms, payment environments, customer accounts, transaction systems, and technology infrastructure.
Your work will intersect with:
Cybersecurity × Fraud × Data Science × Payments × Behavioural Intelligence
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Fraud Intelligence
Identify unusual transaction behaviour, suspicious activity patterns, account anomalies, payment abuse, and emerging fraud typologies.
Threat Detection
Develop and enhance mechanisms for identifying cyber threats affecting digital financial environments.
Behavioural Analytics
Use transaction data, device intelligence, behavioural signals, and statistical techniques to identify abnormal activity.
Risk Models
Support development and refinement of risk-scoring frameworks for transactions, customers, devices, and digital interactions.
Incident Analysis
Investigate security and fraud incidents, identify root causes, and recommend preventative measures.
AI & Machine Learning
Collaborate with data specialists to develop intelligent detection systems capable of identifying previously unseen patterns.
Security Monitoring
Work with technology teams to strengthen monitoring, alerting, logging, access controls, and security visibility.
Intelligence Reporting
Translate complex technical and financial signals into actionable intelligence for senior decision-makers.
THE IDEAL MINDSET
You should naturally ask:
What changed?
Why did it change?
Is this behaviour legitimate?
What pattern are we missing?
Could this happen again?
How can the system detect it earlier?
That investigative mindset is essential.
EXPERIENCE
-
6+ years in cybersecurity, fraud analytics, financial crime technology, risk intelligence, payments security, or fintech
-
Strong understanding of digital-payment environments
-
Experience with fraud-detection methodologies
-
Strong analytical and investigative skills
-
Knowledge of SIEM, threat intelligence, transaction monitoring, or security analytics
-
Familiarity with Python, SQL, machine learning, or statistical analysis is advantageous
-
Excellent reporting and communication skills
Relevant cybersecurity, fraud, or risk certifications are advantageous.
WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS
Technology makes financial services faster.
But speed without intelligence creates vulnerability.
Your responsibility is to help ensure that innovation does not outpace protection.
You will contribute to an environment where sophisticated analytical capabilities, cybersecurity engineering, and financial intelligence work together to protect customers and financial ecosystems.
Compensation: Highly competitive senior-specialist package.
Work Model: Remote-first with GCC regional collaboration.
Application Focus: Demonstrate measurable experience detecting fraud, investigating incidents, designing risk controls, or improving financial-security intelligence.
