About the role
This interview tests your ability to turn fraud data into practical controls for a payments product. Expect trade-offs between stopping losses, keeping legitimate payments flowing, controlling review workload and protecting good customers from unnecessary friction.
How to prepare
- Revise fraud measures and be ready to explain what each one reveals and hides.
- Practise writing SQL logic for velocity, device, beneficiary and account-age patterns.
- Prepare an example of a rule or strategy change you evaluated after launch.
- Think through safe test groups, monitoring windows and rollback triggers for control changes.
- Review how fraudsters may shift behaviour after a new control appears.
Common mistakes
- Optimising only for fraud caught while ignoring genuine payment declines.
- Proposing a broad block when a narrower control would address the pattern.
- Using outcome data without considering reporting delays or label quality.
- Launching a rule without guardrails, monitoring or a rollback plan.
