The Senior Manager, Fraud Strategy, New Initiatives will be part of Remitly's Identity & Trust organization, reporting to the Director, Fraud Strategy. You will lead a team of technical program managers and data analysts who set the fraud control requirements for Remitly's new initiatives: new products, payment methods, and new ways for customers to start a transaction. You will own those requirements from the first risk assessment through control delivery and ongoing maintenance, so that each initiative launches with the right protections and can mature onto Remitly's shared fraud services.

This work sits within Remitly's Transaction Integrity program, which spans fraud, scams, and promotion abuse.

This is a high-impact role for a leader who is comfortable with ambiguity, works across many teams at once, and balances loss prevention with a smooth experience for good customers. You will work closely with product, engineering, compliance, legal, and operations teams, along with internal teams that are integrating into Remitly's shared fraud services. You will join a team that uses artificial intelligence and automation in its daily work, and we expect you to push that further.
