Risk Investigator

Aug 2015Apr 2016 · 8 mos

  • Amazon is constantly under attack by sophisticated criminals from all over the world. Armed with stolen credit cards and hacked customer accounts, they place fraudulent orders. The Transaction Risk Management (TRMS) team at Amazon builds platforms to ensure that every eCommerce transaction is trusted, safe and protected from fraud. The Buyer’s Risk Investigation team is charged with pioneering new techniques to detect and neutralize the fraudsters without impacting our legitimate customers. Our software scans every order at Amazon, computing hundreds of individual risk indicators per order and leveraging sophisticated machine learning algorithms to identify the orders that need to be stopped. We use highly scalable and fault-tolerant distributed systems to handle Amazon's massive traffic volume.
  • The position relies on excellent judgment to plan and accomplish goals and work under very limited supervision of the Manager. Excellent individual problem-solving and analytical skills are used to authenticate customers and complex transactions. Nearly all decisions are expected to be made independently with little to no guidance and a high degree of accuracy. An Investigator engages in frequent discussions with department management, risk analysts, risk engineers, other company associates and third-parties to accomplish goals. Productivity and quality assurance is evaluated along with the overall contribution to the development of the department.
