FOUNDING BUSINESS ANALYST - FINCRIME & RISK DATA

FOUNDING BUSINESS ANALYST - FINCRIME & RISK DATA

Company: ContexQ

Location: Singapore / Remote

At ContexQ, we are fundamentally reshaping the emerging landscape of Contextual Decision Intelligence. We leverage cutting-edge composite AI and graph technology to resolve entities continuously, uncovering hidden insights that revolutionize how global enterprises handle fraud detection, financial crime (AML), risk management, and supply chain intelligence.

We are an ambitious, fast-moving startup taking on massive enterprise big data challenges, and we are looking for a Founding Business Analyst to be the critical link between complex banking regulations and our advanced AI data platform.

This is not a traditional corporate requirements-gathering role. We are looking for an elite domain expert with the DNA of a builder—someone who understands the intricate realities of banking compliance, FinCrime, and data warehousing, and can translate those massive enterprise pain points into actionable data architectures. You will not just be writing tickets; you will be shaping the future of decision intelligence for global leaders in Financial Services.

THE MISSION

As our Founding Business Analyst (FinCrime & Risk), you are the translator and architect of business value. You will bridge the gap between our engineering teams and the customer's compliance, risk, and fraud departments.

Your ultimate metric is product-market alignment and the successful mapping of massive financial datasets into our graph analytics platform. You will lead data discovery, design compliance-driven data models, and create the "awe factor" that shows banking executives exactly how our platform will solve their most critical regulatory headaches.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Drive the Data Strategy: Own the business requirements for our enterprise deployments. Lead discovery sessions with risk and compliance officers to understand their data warehousing ecosystems, ETL pipelines, and regulatory reporting needs.

• Translate Compliance to Tech: Map complex FinCrime (AML, KYC, Sanctions) and Fraud detection typologies into clear, actionable technical specifications for our data engineering and AI/ML teams.

• Orchestrate Enterprise POCs: Partner tightly with Pre-Sales and DevOps to ensure Proof of Concepts are using the right customer data, applying the correct business logic, and clearly demonstrating ROI against the client's existing compliance systems.

• Shape the Core Product: Act as the voice of the banking customer. Feed critical regulatory trends and frontline data intelligence back to our R&D teams to directly influence the ContexQ platform roadmap.

• Ensure Data Integrity: Validate that our entity resolution and graph analytics outputs align with strict banking compliance standards, ensuring explainability and auditability for regulators.

WHO YOU ARE

• Have CFA, FRM or equivalent (atleast any one level) experience or relatable practical experience.

The Domain Expert: You possess deep, hands-on experience in banking compliance, Financial Crime (AML/KYC), Fraud, or Risk management. You know how financial institutions store, move, and analyze their data.

• Data Warehousing Veteran: You have a proven track record working on complex data warehousing, data lake, or BI projects within the financial sector. You are highly comfortable with SQL, data mapping, ETL concepts, and massive datasets.

• A Builder & Owner: You thrive in ambiguity. You don’t need a massive project management office to execute; you are ready to roll up your sleeves, build the plane while flying it, and take extreme ownership of your deliverables.

• A Master Communicator: You can explain complex banking regulations to a backend engineer just as effectively as you can explain graph AI concepts to a bank's Chief Compliance Officer.

COMPENSATION & THE CONTEXQ UPSIDE

We are explicitly looking for top-tier talent who wants to bet on themselves and act as true owners.

We structure compensation to heavily reward high performance and impact, directly linking your financial success to your ability to drive successful enterprise deployments. In exchange for your talent and grit, we offer significant foundational equity and a performance structure designed to reward those who build lasting value.

This role is designed for a builder who wants real skin in the game. If you are looking for a comfortable corporate banking job to coast on, this isn't for you. If you want the massive financial upside of building an enterprise AI juggernaut from the ground up and sharing directly in the value you create, you belong at ContexQ.
