The Role:
We’re looking for a detail-oriented Fraud Analyst to join our Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) team, supporting the detection and investigation of suspicious financial activity from our Israel office. In this role, you’ll be an essential part of Cross River’s fraud ecosystem – gathering facts, reviewing alerts, summarizing findings, and helping identify cases that may require escalation under U.S. FinCEN regulations. You’ll work closely with our U.S.-based investigators to ensure a seamless, regulatory-compliant process for fraud investigations while helping us prepare for increased caseloads and the rollout of new fraud monitoring rules. This is a highly collaborative, high-integrity role where attention to detail, familiarity with U.S. banking regulations, and cross-border operational awareness are key.
Who You Are:
* Detail-obsessed, with strong investigative instincts and analytical rigor
* A clear communicator who can summarize case findings for U.S.-based investigators
* Able to work with ambiguity and make judgment calls based on evolving guidance
* Flexible with time zones, and comfortable working asynchronously with U.S. colleagues
* Interested in compliance, financial crime, and protecting the banking ecosystem
What You’ll Actually Be Doing:
* Review alerts and transactional data to assess potential fraud risk and escalate appropriately
* Collect supporting documentation and prepare clear, concise summaries for U.S.-based investigators
* Collaborate with the FIU Investigations Team on level 2 case reviews and priority escalations
* Monitor case queues and help manage volume ahead of new fraud rules launching in 2026
* Document investigative steps and findings in a structured, auditable manner
* Coordinate with partners and internal teams during fund holds or urgent case reviews
* Support the FIU team in preparing for regulatory audits or internal reviews, as needed
* Adhere strictly to SAR confidentiality guidelines-this role does not involve SAR drafting or submission
Why You’ll Love Working Here:
You’ll be joining a global fraud team with a strong mission: protecting millions of customers while enabling responsible innovation in fintech. At Cross River, you’ll work with experienced professionals, gain insight into complex fraud cases, and contribute to a high-impact compliance environment.
