About the role
This interview examines how you use transaction data to detect fraud patterns and improve controls without creating unnecessary friction for genuine customers. The panel wants strong SQL, careful definitions, commercial judgement and recommendations that teams can act on.
How to prepare
- Review fraud measures such as confirmed loss, detection, false positives and approval impact.
- Prepare an analysis that moved from an unusual pattern to a practical control change.
- Practise checking event grain, late labels, reversals and currency fields before analysis.
- Think through ways to compare rule performance across channels, merchants and customer groups.
- Revisit how you would monitor an attack after a control is deployed.
Common mistakes
- Optimising fraud detection without measuring genuine customer declines.
- Counting events as transactions without confirming the data grain.
- Presenting correlation as proof of an attack method.
- Giving a finding without an owner, action or monitoring plan.
