This role not only deepened my analytical capabilities but also instilled in me a proactive mindset essential for staying one step ahead in the ongoing battle against fraudulent activities. The insights gained during my time at American Express have proven invaluable in my current position as a Financial Crime Analyst at Revolut, where I continue to leverage this expertise to fortify the organization\'s defenses against financial threats.Currently positioned as a Financial Crime Analyst at Revolut, I play a pivotal role in safeguarding the organization against financial threats.

   Revolut

   Oct 2025 — Present · Srinagar, IN

   I am a Financial Crime specialist with a proven track record of converting meticulous AML/CTF Transaction Monitoring experience into high-impact Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) quality control. My career progression into the role of Quality Analyst was directly fueled by the consistent, industry-leading accuracy of my case work, which effectively isolated and escalated sophisticated money launderers and fraudsters while streamlining the clearance of legitimate businesses.In my new capacity within the FIU, I now leverage my deep, practical knowledge of risk typologies (STR/SAR, Fraud, ML) and the challenges faced by front-line analysts to design, implement, and govern a robust Quality Assurance (QA) framework. My focus is not just on error detection, but on proactive process improvement and analyst coaching, ensuring that every Suspicious Activity Report (SAR/STR) meets the highest standards of regulatory compliance, defensibility, and intelligence value for law enforcement.My core value proposition is simple: I prevent compliance gaps before they become regulatory risks. I transition the organization from simply generating regulatory reports to optimizing them for superior intelligence output.
