• Design fraud detection controls in partnership with Product and Engineering, including application-stage signals and post-approval monitoring
• Own weekly fraud intelligence reporting to Director, Risk and CFO — pattern observations, P&L impact, and recommended policy actions
• Partner with Legal/Compliance on escalation of coordinated fraud events and regulatory documentation
• Coordinate with Credit Underwriting on application fraud signals and with Member Support on high-severity card fraud cases
