Job description

You’ll own the analytics function end-to-end - from designing the metrics framework before launch to running daily reporting, fraud monitoring, and merchant analysis once we’re live.

This is a hands-on role: you write SQL, build dashboards, and dig into data. But you also think in problems and solutions - not just charts. You work directly with the Founder, CFO, CTO, and risk/compliance leads. No layers.

WHAT YOU’LL BE OWNING

  • Metrics & BI - design the metrics framework and dashboards from scratch, maintain the metrics dictionary
  • Data model - review schema, identify gaps, propose what to capture and how
  • Transaction & fraud analytics - auth rates, decline analysis, 3DS performance, Visa VAMP / MC MMP monitoring, chargebacks
  • Financial analytics - merchant P&L, interchange tracking, scheme fees, IC++ vs blended pricing simulation, revenue forecasting
  • Settlement & reconciliation - timeliness, exceptions, nostro monitoring
  • Merchant analytics - health scoring, cohort analysis, onboarding funnel, segmentation
  • Compliance & regulatory - daily safeguarding reconciliation, AML stats, scheme reports, CBC submissions
  • Executive reporting - weekly/monthly reviews with insights and recommendations

OUR TECH STACK: PostgreSQL (RDS) · AWS Redshift Serverless · AWS QuickSight · SQL (primary) · Python (pandas, Jupyter) · Excel/CSV · AI tools daily

Requirements

  • 3+ years as a data / BI analyst
  • Advanced SQL (window functions, CTEs, query optimization)
  • Confident with dashboarding and data visualization
  • Analytical mindset - finds insights, proposes solutions, drives them to done
  • Works directly with C-level and non-technical stakeholders
  • Active daily use of AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor) - not just awareness

Nice to have:

  • Fintech / payments / acquiring analytics experience
  • Knowledge of interchange, scheme fees, MDR, and IC++ pricing
  • Visa VAMP / Mastercard MMP familiarity
  • Python (pandas, matplotlib/plotly)
  • AWS Redshift / QuickSight experience
  • AML/CFT reporting knowledge
  • Good English level (at least A2-B1) and fluent russian

Benefits & conditions

  • Remote work (EU timezone or close to it)
  • Competitive compensation above typical market benchmarks for similar roles
  • Work directly with Founder, CTO, CFO, risk team - no corporate layers
  • Own the analytics function from day one
  • Growth path to Head of Analytics / BI
  • Small, highly engaged team with strong ownership
  • Fast-paced environment with minimal bureaucracy
