The Role

The Compliance Data team sits at the intersection of regulatory excellence and data innovation. We don't just "report" on compliance; we build the analytical engine that ensures Adyen scales safely. Our mission is to manage risk at scale through automated, platform-wide data solutions that identify risks before they become issues.

• Automate Compliance: Replace manual, sample-based processes with scalable solutions that cover our entire global portfolio.
• Bridge the Gap: Translate complex regulatory requirements into clear data points and prioritized roadmap items.
• Build data literacy: Drive adoption of data skills to elevate data fluency, enable self-service analysis, and foster data-driven decision making.
• Monitor Risk: Design and maintain frameworks to proactively detect compliance gaps across Adyen’s global platform.
• Own Data Integrity: Partner with Engineering to refine data structures, ensuring our compliance assets are accurate, accessible, and audit-ready.
• Drive Strategy: Define and support cross-functional initiatives that transition our compliance approach from reactive to data-driven.

Who you are

• Technical: You are proficient (6+ years) in SQL, Python, and PySpark, specifically within Big Data using Spark, Airflow, and Git, essential for our scale.
• Strategic: You are able to collaborate with non-technical teams and translate business requirements into technical plans.
• Detail-oriented: You are able to pinpoint inaccuracies and analyze behavior within large datasets with a company-wide impact.
• Automation-First: Identify and prioritize automation opportunities, balancing efficiency gains with an understanding of day-to-day operational realities.
• You have a background in Compliance, Finance, Risk, or similar industries and teams and understand the importance and inner working of working within a highly regulated banking environment.

This role is based out of our Amsterdam office. We are an office-first company and value in-person collaboration; we do not offer remote-only roles.
