Job description
Inscribirse en esta oferta Why should you join dLocal? dLocal enables the biggest companies in the world to collect payments in 40 countries in emerging markets. Global brands rely on us to increase conversion rates and simplify payment expansion effortlessly. As both a payments processor and a merchant of record where we operate, we make it possible for our merchants to make inroads into the worldâs fastest-growing, emerging markets. By joining us you will be a part of an amazing global team that makes it all happen. Being a part of dLocal means working with 1000+ teammates from 30+ different nationalities and developing an international career that impacts millions of peopleâs daily lives. We are builders, we never run from a challenge, we are customer-centric, and if this sounds like you, we know you will thrive in our team., Weâre looking for a seasoned Data Specialist with at least 5 years of experience to join our Compliance team, focused on Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (CFT) transaction monitoring. Youâll own the analytical backbone of our transaction monitoring systems, and actively build the broader data strategy work within Compliance - whether through liaising with a team of data scientists or through influencing Product teams working upstream to us. This is a hands-on role with real influence on how we detect financial crime across LATAM, EMEA, and APAC. What will you be doing?
- Own the end-to-end analytical lifecycle of our rule-based transaction monitoring systems, from data pulling and exploration in Databricks to proposing rule and threshold changes in alignment with Compliance Leadership requirements.
- Maintain and refine our false negative methodology - how we identify what monitoring is missing, not just what it catches.
- Help shape the agentic monitoring function - from orchestration design to implementation - as we expand automation across our AML/CFT monitoring flows.
- Act as the technical liaison with data scientists for ML driven detection: gather and document requirements, challenge and validate models delivered, and ensure outputs are usable for compliance decision-making.
- Own regulatory reporting for AML/CFT transaction monitoring, ensuring the underlying data is accurate, complete, and traceable - proactively identifying and resolving data quality issues before they become reporting or audit problems.
- Build and maintain audit-ready documentation for every methodology change - rationale that can be defended to a regulator or auditor months after the decision was made, by someone who wasnât in the room.
- Engage with Compliance Leadership to translate evolving AML/CFT regulatory requirements into concrete data and monitoring needs.
- Generate reports and dashboards that communicate overall Framework performance and monitoring effectiveness to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. What skills do you need?
Requirements
- Bachelorâs or Masterâs degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Statistics, Engineering, or proven experience in a correlated field.
- 5+ years of experience in data analytics, risk, or fraud/financial crime analytics, ideally in financial services or fintech. Deep AML/CFT transaction monitoring experience is a strong plus but not mandatory.
- Strong SQL and Python (Databricks environment preferred); comfort with statistical analysis - this is not exclusively a data scientist role, so ML frameworks are a plus, not a requirement.
- Solid understanding of the end-to-end data lifecycle - from raw data and pipelines to modeling and reporting - enough to collaborate effectively with Data Engineers, Data Analysts, and Data Scientists.
- Demonstrated experience as a technical liaison or requirement-owner working with additional Data, Product and Engineering teams - someone who can push back on a delivery that doesnât meet the need, not just accept whatâs handed over.
- Experience producing documentation that holds up under audit or regulatory scrutiny is a strong plus.
- Proactive, collaborative mindset; comfortable operating with a high degree of autonomy on AML data analytics, as part of a small and growing team.
