The Banking Compliance & Risk team at Shine

The Compliance & Risk team keeps Shine's customers and accounts safe from financial crime. Our mission is to detect and prevent fraud and money laundering and to secure customer accounts, without making life harder for the business owners who make up almost all of our customers.

The team owns anti-money laundering (risk scoring, transaction monitoring and alerts, suspicious activity reports, sanctions and PEP screening) and fraud detection and prevention (real-time monitoring, pattern analysis, case investigation and resolution). It also owns the back-office products that our AML and fraud employees use every day.

Every decision this team makes carries a cost on both sides. A missed fraud pattern costs customers money and puts our banking licence at risk. A false alert freezes the account of a plumber on the day they need to pay a supplier. We must get both right, across multiple countries, under regulators that keep changing the rules.

The work also decides how much manual review our compliance and operations teams carry. Sharper risk scoring, better alert rules and good case tooling reduce the number of alerts an analyst opens and the time each one takes.

Your role as a Senior Product Manager

As the Product Manager of the Compliance & Risk team, you own the product strategy for how Shine detects and prevents financial crime and fraud. You build deep knowledge of AML and fraud regulation across France, Germany, the Netherlands and Denmark, and turn it into products that analysts can work with quickly and that legitimate customers barely notice.

You work every day with an engineering manager, a designer, and the compliance, fraud and operations teams who use what we build. You need enough technical depth to question trade-offs on detection logic, rules and models, and data pipelines, and to bring technically driven opportunities into the team's priorities.

Your responsibilities will include:

Own the AML and fraud roadmap. Set the strategy for risk scoring, transaction monitoring, sanctions and PEP screening, and real-time fraud detection, and decide what we build, buy or change in each area.
Run the team on outcomes. Define KPIs such as false positive rate, fraud loss rate, time to resolve a case, and the share of alerts closed without manual review, and tie every project to at least one of them.
Turn regulation into scoped work. Follow regulatory change in our four markets, including the EU AML package and the payment rules on fraud and strong authentication, and translate each change into work with an owner and a date.
Make security proportionate to risk. Shape the customer experience of strong authentication, phishing protection and account alerts so that friction rises only where risk rises.
Build the back-office tools with the analysts. Sit with the people who work the alerts and cases, measure where their time goes, and ship tooling that removes the slowest steps.
Work with engineering on data and detection. Own the trade-offs between rules and models, data quality, and where AI can triage alerts, with explainability and an audit trail a regulator can inspect.
Set the strategic direction for our transaction monitoring and behavioral analytics across countries.
Partner with compliance leadership. Write requirements that hold up in an audit, and give compliance officers the evidence they need to approve changes quickly.
Drive discovery and delivery. Talk to customers and analysts every week, look for fixes that solve several problems at once, and mix structural improvements with quick wins.
Manage incidents. Lead the product response to fraud spikes, alert backlogs and detection failures, and follow up until the root cause is fixed.
