Backed by global investors such as GIC, Tiger Global and Mastercard, Razorpay has built a robust ecosystem that spans checkout, payroll automation, invoicing, fraud detection, and AIβdriven risk intelligence. The companyβs culture is built around ownership, transparency and relentless learning β interns can question CXOs and employees are encouraged to ship ideas without micromanagement.
The Junior Analyst β Risk Management role sits at the heart of Razorpayβs compliance engine. You will be responsible for safeguarding the platform against financial crime by conducting thorough Customer Due Diligence (CDD), assessing merchant risk, and monitoring transactions for suspicious activity. The position blends analytical rigor with stakeholder communication, requiring you to work closely with product, operations and legal teams to ensure that every merchant onboarding meets the highest standards of AML, sanctions and fraud control.
Key responsibilities include:
1. Perform initial and ongoing CDD for new and existing merchants.
2. Conduct website and businessβmodel assessments to validate risk profiles.

4. Carry out enhanced due diligence (EDD) and sanctions screening using tools like Dow Jones and LexisNexis.
5. Manage escalation queues, resolving complex or exception cases from operations.
6. Lead qualityβcontrol checks across investigation types, including SAR filing.
7. Contribute to processβimprovement initiatives and document bestβpractice workflows.
8. Serve as a Subject Matter Expert on AML policies, fraudβcontrol frameworks and risk categorisation.
9. Maintain accurate records and generate compliance reports for internal and regulator review.
10. Communicate findings clearly to crossβfunctional stakeholders and senior leadership.
Tech stack exposure includes Razorpayβs internal riskβmanagement platform, Freshdesk for ticketing, and screening APIs from Dow Jones and LexisNexis. Familiarity with SQL for data extraction and basic scripting (Python) for automation is advantageous.
Growth path: Starting as a Junior Analyst, high performers can progress to Senior Analyst, Risk Lead, and eventually to Risk Operations Manager or Compliance Head, with opportunities to rotate into product risk, fraud engineering or regulatory affairs.
