- Excellent communication and strategic storytelling skills, particularly the ability to translate complex Engineering and Data Science discussions into clear insights for non-technical decision-makers.
- Strong analytical and data-driven decision-making capabilities, with familiarity with financial and fraud prevention metrics such as conversion rates versus risk, transactional churn, false positives, and chargebacks.
- Resilience, autonomy, and adaptability when working in ambiguous environments, with the ability to structure open-ended problems, identify uncertainties, and make strategic decisions with incomplete information.

- Previous experience in anti-fraud environments, particularly with rule engines and the real-time integration of statistical models and Machine Learning solutions.
