About the Role:
As a Fraud Analyst specializing in Peer-to-Peer (P2P) and Cash Advance products, you will be on the front lines of protecting Sezzle and our customers from financial loss and malicious activity. You will leverage data analytics, investigation tools, and industry knowledge to identify, mitigate, and prevent complex fraud schemes, including Account Takeover (ATO), friendly fraud, synthetic identities, and social engineering scams.
The ideal candidate is naturally curious, highly analytical, and thrives in a fast-paced environment where fraud trends evolve rapidly.
What You'll Do:
- Transaction Monitoring & Investigation: Conduct daily reviews of high-risk P2P transfers and cash advance requests to identify fraudulent activity. Investigate suspicious accounts and take appropriate action (e.g., freezing accounts, declining transactions).
- Trend Analysis & Rule Optimization: Analyze fraud patterns and emerging trends to identify gaps in current defenses. Work closely with the Risk Strategy team to recommend and test new fraud rules and machine learning model features.
- Scam & ATO Mitigation: Investigate complex fraud cases involving social engineering scams, unauthorized access (ATO), and first-party/friendly fraud specific to instant money movement.
- Reporting: Create and maintain dashboards tracking key fraud metrics (e.g., false positive rates, fraud loss rates, operational SLAs) and report findings to leadership.
What We Look For:
- Experience: 2 - 4 years of experience in fraud investigations, risk management, or trust & safety, specifically within fintech, banking, or the payments industry.
- Domain Knowledge: Strong understanding of P2P payment networks (e.g., Zelle, Venmo, CashApp, ACH) and short-term credit/cash advance products.
- Analytical Skills: Proficiency in data analysis using SQL and Python. Ability to connect the dots across multiple data sources to uncover hidden fraud rings.
- Problem Solving: A strong analytical mindset with the ability to make high-quality, high-velocity decisions under pressure.
- Communication: Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex fraud patterns to non-technical stakeholders.
Preferred Qualifications
- Vendor Experience: Familiarity with modern fraud prevention tools and identity verification vendors.
About You:
- You have relentlessly high standards - many people may think your standards are unreasonably high. You are continually raising the bar and driving those around you to deliver great results. You make sure that defects do not get sent down the line and that problems are fixed so they stay fixed.
- You're not bound by convention - your success—and much of the fun—lies in developing new ways to do things.
- You need action - speed matters in business. Many decisions and actions are reversible and do not need extensive study. We value calculated risk-taking.
- You earn trust - you listen attentively, speak candidly, and treat others respectfully.
- You have backbone; disagree, then commit - you can respectfully challenge decisions when you disagree, even when doing so is uncomfortable or exhausting. You have conviction and are tenacious. You do not compromise for the sake of social cohesion. Once a decision is determined, you commit wholly.
- You deliver results - you focus on the key inputs and deliver them with the right quality and in a timely fashion. Despite setbacks, you rise to the occasion and never settle.

Tips for Your Remote Fraud Analyst Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote fraud analyst openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your background and apply directly. Remote postings fill fast, so checking regularly and applying early gives you a real advantage.
Prove your async communication skills upfront
Remote fraud analyst teams rely on written documentation for case notes, escalation reports, and cross-team updates. Your cover letter and any work samples should demonstrate that you write clearly and concisely, since that's the skill remote employers screen for hardest.
Highlight the fraud tools you know by name
Remote hiring managers can't watch you work, so your resume needs to name the specific platforms you've used, such as transaction monitoring systems, case management tools, or identity verification software. Vague references to 'fraud tools' don't stand out in a remote applicant pool.
Prepare for a remote-first interview process
Remote fraud analyst interviews often include a written assessment or a take-home case scenario to test your analytical judgment without in-person prompts. Practice documenting your reasoning in writing as clearly as you would verbally, because that's the format many remote employers use to evaluate candidates.
Target sectors that run distributed fraud operations
Fintech companies, digital lenders, insurance carriers, and e-commerce platforms build entire fraud teams remotely because their fraud risk lives in digital transactions. Focusing your search on these sectors puts you in front of employers already set up to hire and manage fraud analysts from anywhere.
Remote Fraud Analyst Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote fraud analyst job?
Target companies with distributed teams in fintech, digital banking, insurance, and e-commerce, since those sectors run fraud operations remotely far more often than traditional firms. Remote employers screen for self-direction, clear written communication, and hands-on experience with fraud detection tools, transaction monitoring platforms, and case management systems. Candidates who can demonstrate independent judgment, document their investigative process clearly, and show familiarity with remote collaboration tools have a real edge.
Which companies hire remote fraud analysts?
Remote fraud analyst roles are posted by Airbnb, Whatnot, and Guidehouse and others right now, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. Remote-first fintech firms, digital banks, insurance carriers, and e-commerce platforms make up the bulk of employers hiring fraud analysts on fully distributed teams.
Can you get a remote fraud analyst job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level fraud analyst roles are harder to land because employers expect you to work independently from day one with minimal in-person oversight. Fintech startups and smaller digital lenders are more likely to hire entry-level candidates remotely. You can strengthen your case by completing relevant certifications in fraud examination or AML, building familiarity with transaction monitoring tools, and showing strong written communication skills in your application materials.
Do you need a degree for remote fraud analyst jobs?
Not always. Many remote employers care more about demonstrated skills than a specific degree, particularly in fintech and e-commerce. Hands-on experience with fraud detection software, case documentation, chargeback management, or AML processes often carries more weight than your field of study. Certifications like the Certified Fraud Examiner designation can substitute for or reinforce a degree when employers are evaluating remote candidates.
Which industries hire the most remote fraud analysts?
Remote fraud analyst roles concentrate in Banking & Financial Services, Hospitality & Tourism, and Technology & Software, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. Those sectors operate large distributed teams that handle high volumes of digital transactions, making remote fraud operations both practical and necessary.
