Position: Payments Risk & Controls Expert
Type: Contract
Compensation: $80–$180/hour
Location: Remote

Role Responsibilities

  • Review and author payments risk and control assessments across payment capture, validation, authorization, tracking, funds control, smart routing, FX conversion, netting, prioritization, returns, and tokenization.
  • Evaluate inherent risk, residual risk, and control effectiveness using standard impact-and-likelihood frameworks.
  • Map risks to controls and identify control gaps or elevated vulnerabilities.
  • Identify failure modes in payments capabilities such as system failures, stale data, bypassed authorization, missed cut-offs, and misconfigured routing/netting/funds controls.
  • Provide structured evaluations with clear written justifications grounded in operational risk and RCSA standards.
  • Work independently and asynchronously to improve the reliability of frontier AI systems.

Qualifications

Must-Have

  • 5+ years of experience in payments risk assessment, bank operational risk, risk and control self-assessment (RCSA), issue management, risk and controls, compliance risk assessment, or banking risk advisory.
  • Experience in titles such as VP / AVP Operational Risk Management, RCSA Program Manager / Lead, Business Risk & Control Officer, Payments Risk & Controls Manager, Payments Operations / Treasury Services Risk Manager, or Compliance Risk Assessment Manager.
  • Comfort with standard payments risk lenses: execution and accuracy, authorization and fraud, data integrity, timeliness and cut-offs, client impact, and regulatory/compliance impact.
  • Strong command of inherent risk scoring drivers — transaction value and volume, time sensitivity, geographic footprint, client harm, regulatory and operational impact, reputational impact, and historical signals (operational risk events, KRIs, issues, limits, external events).
  • Excellent analytical and written communication skills.
  • Comfortable working independently with digital tools.

Preferred

  • Background at a top-tier bank strongly preferred (e.g., JPMorgan Chase, Citi, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, BNY, Barclays, Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley).
