SentiLink stops more than 150,000 fraud attempts and verifies more than 3 million identities every day to protect both institutions and consumers. The problems we work on are challenging, and solving them takes deep domain expertise, rigorous analysis, and a willingness to dig into the details.
At SentiLink, you'll work alongside smart, highly collaborative colleagues who respect each other's time and judgment, take ownership, and follow through on their commitments. Together, we do truly meaningful work protecting the identities of innocent consumers and flagging the fraudsters attempting to exploit them.
We're well capitalized and growing quickly. We already serve 13 of the top 15 U.S. banks, we're expanding into new markets, and we're backed by Craft Ventures, Andreessen Horowitz, NYCA, and Max Levchin. We've been named to the Forbes Fintech 50 and as a 2026 FICO Industry Vanguard Decision Award Winner. We were also the first company to go live with the electronic Consent Based Social Security Number Verification (eCBSV) service, and we've testified before the U.S. Congress on the future of identity.
We want SentiLink to be the best place you've ever worked. We offer generous benefits and support a range of working arrangements, from fully remote to in-office. We are a digital-first company with strong collaboration across the U.S. and India, and we meet in person regularly to build relationships. We have offices in Austin, San Francisco, New York City, Seattle (Bellevue), Los Angeles, and Chicago in the U.S., and in Gurugram (Delhi) and Bengaluru in India.
Role:
SentiLink hires deeply curious, high-impact leaders who are passionate about fraud, identity, and the evolving tactics used to exploit modern financial systems.
Rather than hiring for a single predefined role, this position is part of a strategic leadership pipeline for experienced fraud professionals who bring deep operational expertise and the ability to influence strategy across multiple functions.
During the recruiting process, we’ll work with you to identify where you can have the greatest impact based on your experience, interests, and business needs. This could include partnering on fraud strategy, product strategy, operational excellence, industry engagement, strategic partnerships, executive stakeholder management, thought leadership, and other high-impact initiatives that help shape the future of fraud prevention.
You will join the team aligned with your role and report directly into that function, with clear ownership and accountability from day one.
This approach allows us to match experienced fraud leaders to our highest-priority opportunities while leveraging their expertise where it can have the greatest impact across the business.

10+ years of experience in fraud, fraud risk, financial crimes, identity, trust & safety, or related fields.
Experience leading fraud strategy, fraud operations, fraud risk, or related functions within a financial institution, fintech, payments company, insurer, marketplace, or other regulated industry.
