About The Role

Yuno is looking for a Staff Engineer to be the senior technical leader for Money, Risk & Payment Ancillaries — the business unit that protects money and manages risk across every transaction on the platform. Spanning risk, fraud, scams, money operations, reconciliations, and chargebacks, this is the domain where financial correctness, real-time decisioning, and trust are non-negotiable. You'll architect the foundational systems behind these capabilities and raise the technical bar for the teams that build them.

This is a hands-on leadership role in a zero-tolerance-for-failure environment — every cent must be accounted for, and every risk decision must be fast, accurate, and auditable. You'll design and build bank-grade, resilient systems, champion a "You Build It, You Run It" culture, and turn the hardest problems in money movement and risk into elegant, maintainable architecture.

What This Unit Owns

• Risk & Risk Operations — real-time risk decisioning and the operational tooling that powers it

• Fraud — detecting and preventing fraudulent transactions across the network

• Scams — protecting users from authorized push payment (APP) scams and social-engineering attacks

• Money Operations — the movement and settlement of funds across the platform

• Reconciliations — matching transactions, settlements, and ledgers to guarantee financial accuracy

• Chargebacks — managing disputes, representment, and the full chargeback lifecycle

How AI Shows Up in This Role

• The systems you build power Yuno's AI-driven risk, fraud, and scam engines — the models and pipelines that evaluate every transaction
