  • Drive cross-functional projects aimed at refining operational processes and tools and enhancing the detection and management of fraudulent accounts across our global analyst network
  • Investigate, mitigate, and remediate urgent fraud incidents, such as card testing and account takeover, and manage user responses to high-urgency, distributed fraud attacks
  • Communicate regular updates during team and organization-wide business reviews, summarize the outcomes of complex investigations for executives, and deliver clear case determinations to users and partner financial institutions
  • Travel to vendor locations to conduct analyst training sessions and knowledge-sharing initiatives, identify challenges, and enhance analyst performance to improve overall outcomes
