Senior Fraud & Risk Analyst (f/m/x)

About This Opportunity

We are representing a confidential mobile gaming organization seeking a Senior Fraud & Risk Analyst to join their team in Hamburg. Our client operates in a fast-paced environment where fraud prevention and risk management are critical to protecting their rewarded user acquisition channels and maintaining platform integrity.

This role offers a unique hybrid position—you'll work closely with the Fraud Analytics Team Lead on strategic initiatives while supporting operational implementation, process improvements, and analytical deep-dives. If you thrive in high-velocity environments and have experience detecting sophisticated fraud patterns, we want to hear from you.

Responsibilities

• Investigate, analyze, and mitigate fraud patterns across user acquisition, transactions, and account activity, with particular focus on reward-based and incentivized channels where fraud vectors are prevalent
• Design and refine fraud detection rules, heuristics, and monitoring dashboards to identify emerging abuse patterns early
• Support strategic risk initiatives by contributing analysis, recommendations, and execution follow-through
• Act as a reliable second-in-command on risk management matters, stepping in for the Team Lead on projects, stakeholder updates, or urgent decisions when needed
• Partner cross-functionally with product, engineering, data, and support teams to close fraud gaps and strengthen detection systems
• Analyze large datasets to identify trends, quantify fraud exposure, and report findings to leadership
• Document policies, playbooks, and standard operating procedures for fraud and risk workflows

What We're Looking For

• Relevant experience in fraud management or risk analysis, ideally with exposure to both large corporate environments and fast-moving scale-ups
• Direct experience with reward-based user acquisition fraud (offerwalls, referral abuse, incentivized installs, multi-accounting, device farms) is a strong advantage
• Strong analytical skills with proficiency in SQL and experience working with large datasets to investigate patterns and validate hypotheses
• Demonstrated ability to operate with ownership—comfortable proposing and driving initiatives independently
• Experience contributing to risk/fraud strategy through A/B testing, impact analysis, and stress testing
• Experience supporting or deputizing for a manager/Team Lead, with sound judgment on when to escalate versus decide independently
• Excellent communication skills, able to translate technical fraud findings into clear recommendations for both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Familiarity with fraud detection tooling and risk management frameworks

Nice to Have:

• Background in policy design or risk governance frameworks
• Relevant certifications such as CFE, CFCS, CAMS, CRISC, CFA, and/or FRM
• Working knowledge of GDPR, PSD2/SCA, AML/KYC principles, and PCI-DSS basics
