How You’ll Make an Impact

The Senior Fraud Investigator protects members and the credit union from financial loss by preventing, detecting, investigating, and resolving fraud across all channels (cards, ACH, checks, P2P, online/mobile, lending, and real‑time payments). The role triages alerts, conducts case investigations, communicates directly with members regarding suspected fraud, and partners with internal teams and law enforcement when needed. The Senior Fraud Investigator identifies patterns and trends, recommends rule and control enhancements, and assists with testing and optimizing fraud systems to strengthen loss prevention and member experience. This position also exercises sound, risk‑based decision‑making—often in time‑sensitive situations—to determine appropriate actions that may directly impact member experience, financial exposure, and operational risk.

What You’ll Be Doing 

  1. Perform alert triage, conduct investigations, and make informed transaction decisions that may directly impact member experience, financial exposure, and organizational risk.
  2. Conduct thorough investigations into suspected fraud across multiple channels—such as ATO, identity theft, ACH, cards, P2P, and lending—leveraging BI dashboards, data extracts, and other data analysis tools to accurately identify issues and support timely resolution.
  3. Interpret and analyze fraud‑related data in partnership with the Fraud Data Analyst to identify emerging trends and attack vectors, refine or optimize rule models, and strengthen risk‑based decisioning.
  4. Serve as a decision‑maker on complex or time‑sensitive fraud cases, making recommendations or determinations that may directly impact financial exposure, member outcomes, and regulatory risk
  5. Communicate clearly and empathetically with members impacted by fraud, guiding them through next steps and ensuring a positive and supportive experience.
  6. Support regulatory compliance by performing suspicious activity reviews, documenting findings, and assisting with reporting requirements while maintaining audit‑ready records.
  7. Partner with internal teams and external entities, including vendors and law enforcement, to coordinate fraud investigations and ensure effective resolution.
  8. Maintain and enhance fraud procedures; support system testing, rule tuning, and other improvements that increase detection accuracy and operational efficiency.
  9. Take on additional responsibilities as necessary to support fraud‑prevention initiatives and overall departmental success.
