Risk is not just fraud. It is every dollar that leaks.

I lead the G2N Risk function at Daraz (Alibaba Group), the leading e-commerce platform across South Asia. My work sits at the intersection of fraud detection, logistics analytics, and AI deployment across Bangladesh, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Nepal.

I operate across two domains with dual reporting: Risk Analytics (Head of Risk) and AI Initiatives (Head of AI). This dual structure means I build analytical frameworks that feed directly into both rule-engine deployment and AI agent development.

My core focus is the gross-to-net (G2N) metric: how much platform revenue actually reaches the bottom line after failed deliveries, cancellations, returns, and subsidy abuse are accounted for. Every workstream I run is anchored to that number.
