About Marshmallow

We build financial products that accelerate the economic freedom for people who move across borders. We started with car insurance — insuring over a million drivers — and we're scaling beyond. Tens of millions of people move countries each year, facing overlooked financial challenges. Our future is in building financial products around their needs to positively impact their lives.

The Fraud Team

We are here to use data and AI to protect Marshmallow from application fraud, making sure that the people and risks we insure are genuine and fairly priced. Our work is critical to achieving a healthy loss ratio, unlocking growth, and building trust with under-served customer segments.

Our focus is on policy fraud at the point of sale. That includes detecting misrepresentation, organised fraud such as ghost broking, and verifying customer information efficiently and at scale. We build models and tools that help Marshmallow validate customer information, automate document reviews, and direct investigative effort to where it has the biggest impact. The goal is to reduce operational workload while improving decision quality.

You will join a cross-functional team spanning fraud operations, product, and engineering, with full ownership of your initiatives. You will help shape the next generation of fraud defences powered by intelligent workflows, structured and unstructured data, and a strong focus on experimentation and results. Success in this role requires deep technical skill, curiosity about fraud behaviours, and the ability to turn insight into action.
