About the Role

Vinted Pay is establishing a new AML & Fraud Prevention product domain to manage anti-money laundering, counter-terrorist financing controls, sanctions screening, KYC, and transaction monitoring. This domain will own these capabilities end-to-end, turning financial crime prevention into a mature product that satisfies regulators without adding friction for users.

Responsibilities

  • Drive and align the AML & Fraud Prevention domain on a single, unified vision, expressed through measurable objectives and key results.
  • Own the product roadmap across AML/CTF, sanctions and PEP screening, KYC, transaction monitoring and fraud prevention, build alignment across product teams, cross-functional partners and the leadership.
  • Partner with MLRO, Compliance, Risk and Legal teams to translate regulatory obligations into product requirements and advocate for automated solutions.
  • Manage multiple competing objectives and provide clarity to the delivering organization.
  • Use and analyze data to size risk, identify product opportunities, and build the right capabilities at the right time.
  • Own build-vs-buy decisions, then assess and collaborate with vendors in building and maintaining AML/Fraud prevention solutions.
  • Anticipate and address regulatory changes, such as the EU AML package and AMLA, PSD3/PSR, and evolving sanctions regimes.
  • Build, mentor, lead, and scale a team of Product Managers.
  • Implement best-in-class product development and managerial practices.

Requirements

  • 7+ years of experience in product management, with a substantial part in AML, financial crime, compliance, risk, or fraud, ideally at a regulated financial institution, e-money institution, PSP, bank, or fintech.
  • 4+ years of developing people and managing teams, including Product Managers.
  • Deep working knowledge of the AML domain: KYC and identity verification, customer risk scoring, sanctions and PEP screening, transaction monitoring and alert handling, SAR/STR reporting, and the regulatory frameworks behind them (EU AML directives and the AML package, national transpositions, FATF standards).
  • Hands-on experience with fraud and scam prevention: detection models and rules engines, account takeover controls, chargebacks and disputes, and the trade-off between loss reduction and false positives.
  • Proven track record of successful product launches (at least two substantial projects with a 6–9 month minimum duration).
  • Comfortable operating in a regulated environment, working alongside compliance officers, internal and external auditors and supervisors.
  • Ability to deliver from 0 to 1, and willingness to build own tools.
  • Exceptional leadership skills and substantial experience building high-performing teams of 10+.
  • Significantly above-average business acumen, analytical skills, and long-term planning skills.
  • Both quantitative and qualitative skills: ability to assess complex systems, integrate usability studies, research, and market analysis into product requirements.
  • Well-organized, with a collaborative attitude and a strong sense of ownership.
  • Excellent communicator, including in written and spoken English.
