Who we are:
We are a leader in fraud prevention and AML compliance. Our platform uses device intelligence, behavior biometrics, machine learning, and AI to stop fraud before it happens.

We have raised $145M from world-class investors, including Andreessen Horowitz, Activant, Visa, Experian, FIS, and Google Ventures.
Our culture:
We have hubs in the Bay Area, NYC, Austin, Toronto, and São Paulo. However, we maintain a remote-first work culture. #WorkFromAnywhere
We hire talented, self-motivated individuals with extreme ownership and high growth orientation.
We value performance and not hours worked. We believe you shouldn't have to miss your family dinner, your kid's school play, friends get-together, or doctor's appointments for the sake of adhering to an arbitrary work schedule.

About the Role:
Sardine is rapidly acquiring new customers and executing on an ambitious roadmap. As a result, we're building a world-class customer success team to support our fraud, payments, and compliance-related products as we grow. This role is a combination of Account Manager and Solution Architect. You'll manage a handful of customers and act as their stakeholder within Sardine, helping maximize the value of our products and services. In addition, you will collaborate daily with Sardine teams to help customers meet their risk, fraud, compliance, and payment needs, including risk analytics, data science, integrations, and products.
What you’ll be doing:

Build a thorough understanding of our product, technology, and strategy and be able to message these succinctly to customers.
Translate complex product and technology problems into simple and actionable solutions. Be able to manage the solution process both internally and externally.
Speak knowledgeably and advise on best practices relating to fraud and compliance
Build, monitor, and communicate KPIs to clients.
Provide strategic analysis and critical thinking as we plan long-term expansion.
Work with Sardine's risk analytics teams to proactively solve new fraud typologies and actively communicate findings to customers.
What you’ll need:
7+ years of experience in Account Management, Customer Success, Risk Management, or Solutions Architecture within B2B SaaS, with a clear understanding of how customers integrate APIs
Domain experience in fraud prevention, AML/KYC compliance, or financial crime risk — gained at a bank, fintech, payment processor, or fraud/compliance SaaS vendor operating in at least one of UAE, Singapore, or Australia
Regulatory literacy across at least one primary market framework: CBUAE, DIFC/ADGM (UAE); MAS Notice 626, FATF recommendations (Singapore); AUSTRAC, AML/CTF Act, Scam Awareness Framework (Australia)
Analytical skills that are second to none — you excel at number crunching and drawing insights; comfortable reading ML model outputs (confusion matrices, precision/recall, ROC curves), running SQL queries against fraud/transaction datasets, and back-testing rule changes against historical data
Proficient in using business intelligence tools for fraud and compliance reporting
Capable of translating complex strategies into actionable processes and outcomes — including structured root cause analysis (5 Whys, DMAIC) when customers experience fraud spikes or false positive surges
A natural at building relationships and collaborating across CXOs, Head of Compliance, VP Engineering, and operational fraud analyst levels simultaneously
Strong presentation skills for both virtual and in-person meetings with senior stakeholders across multiple cultural contexts
Previous customer-facing experience with a technical product — you are comfortable owning escalations and driving structured remediation plans under pressure
An exceptional project manager, synthesizing all inputs and balancing the needs of multiple stakeholders across time zones and regulatory environments
You constantly think about ways to improve processes — you are not satisfied with "that's how we've always done it."
You love making customers more efficient as much as we do!
Nice to have:
CAMS, CFE, or equivalent certification
Experience with behavior biometrics, device intelligence, or identity verification platforms
