Fraud doesn’t announce itself. It hides in payment patterns, account behaviour, and network overlaps — and by the time it surfaces as a regulatory question, the window to stop it has already closed. Your job is to close that window first. You’ll own the detection systems, the investigation programme, and the escalation bridge between fraud and AML compliance. Not just run them — own them. You’ll lead a team, set the controls standard, and make sure suspicious activity is not only caught but documented and escalated in line with regulatory obligations across Deriv’s licensed jurisdictions. Why This Matters Deriv’s mission is Trading for Anyone, Anywhere, Anytime. That mission runs through regulated entities — CFD brokers, VASP/CASP licences, and banking licences — processing millions of transactions across time zones. Real money, real regulations, real consequences. Fraud is a predicate offense for money laundering. Every case you investigate has the potential to surface a...

We're not hiring a compliance officer who flags issues after the fact. We're hiring someone who builds the systems that catch them before they become fines. Why This Matters Deriv's mission is Trading for Anyone, Anywhere, Anytime. Real money, real regulations, real consequences—across every jurisdiction we operate in. Manual compliance doesn't scale to millions of transactions, and rules change faster than any policy team can track by hand. We're building continuous monitoring, automated regulatory intelligence, and audit trails that regulators actually trust—because they're more consistent than human-only review. Why Deriv We're already automating compliance, not planning to. Automated AML review pulling data, computing risk metrics, and flagging high-risk clients without a human running the same query every morning Regulatory research automation: feed in a jurisdiction and licence type, get back applicable laws, requirements, and risk factors Dozens of fraud...

We are building a stablecoin-powered global B2B payment network that serves high-frequency, digital-first verticals including iGaming and cross-border trade. In this senior role, you will take full strategic ownership of our risk control architecture, balancing growth with rigorous loss mitigation, channel health, and regulatory compliance across on-chain and off-chain rails. You will design and establish our end-to-end Risk Strategy framework from 0 to 1. You will not be performing daily manual reviews or writing code. Instead, you will act as the chief architect of "what to check" and "how to check"—authoring robust SOPs for operational teams, directing system product requirements for Product & Tech, and driving high conversion rates for legitimate high-volume merchants without compromising security. We are flexible in terms of the job location, work arrangement will be tailored to identified candidate's preference. What You’ll Do 1. Architect Risk Frameworks &...

Individual Contributor role — you'll lead through analysis and judgment, not people management. We're not hiring someone to fill out risk registers. We're hiring someone to figure out why a risk model missed something last quarter — and build the system that catches it next time. Why this matters Deriv's mission is Trading for Anyone, Anywhere, Anytime. Millions of traders, in multiple currencies, across regulatory regimes, around the clock. At that scale, risk doesn't wait for a quarterly review cycle — it moves as fast as the market does. Real money, real regulations, real consequences. We're already building risk operations that run continuously: dozens of fraud detection models flagging money-movement patterns and trading abuse in production, AML review pulling risk metrics automatically instead of by hand, and vendor risk assessments run through document analysis instead of a checklist. Not experiments — systems that are already catching things a person reviewing...
