We expect all team members to actively engage with AI tools relevant to their role and grow their fluency as the technology evolves. AI experience requirements vary by role and will be assessed during the interview process. About the Role: As a Fraud Operations Analyst, you will serve as a fraud-fighting detective, playing a key role in making Gusto the safest and most secure payroll and benefits solution. In this role, you will identify patterns, recognize uncharacteristic behavior, and apply critical thinking to protect our customers. Beyond investigation, you will continuously look for opportunities to iterate and optimize our processes — driving greater efficiency and reducing customer pain along the way. This role also sits at the front line of Gusto’s increasingly AI-native Risk Operations work. You’ll serve as the human in the loop for AI-powered workflows—reviewing flagged cases, validating AI outputs, making nuanced decisions where human discretion matters, and helping improve the systems we use every day.
