• Build monitoring and detection capabilities for application-layer threats, API abuse, and fraud patterns
• Design infrastructure monitoring, automation, and remediation practices that keep our systems resilient and trustworthy
• Collaborate with Compliance and Legal to ensure product features meet regulatory requirements (BSA/AML, KYC/KYB, state money transmission)
• Influence technical strategy across Product, Platform, and Infrastructure teams on security and risk management
