About the role:Staying a step ahead of fraudsters takes an inquisitive mind, an appetite to dig deeper, and the imagination to shed new light on how we fight fraud — and here, it all starts with data. As an Analyst on Enova's Fraud Analytics team, you'll be the quantitative engine of our fraud prevention effort. You'll develop, enhance, and test the models and pattern-recognition pipelines that surface emerging fraud trends across our lending products — then work hand-in-hand with our Fraud Operations team, who investigate the individual applications your models flag. Their findings (the false positives and false negatives) come back to you to sharpen the identifying characteristics and pivot the approach. It's a fast, iterative loop, and you sit at the center of it.
The broader Enova Analytics department consists of 100 quantitative professionals dedicated to using the latest cutting-edge techniques to drive business value: providing customers with access to fast, trustworthy credit while managing risk. Our company-wide, data-driven culture means you spend less time presenting and more time on the fun part: crunching data.
Key responsibilities:- Develop, deploy, and monitor models and pattern-recognition algorithms to detect emerging and shifting fraud trends across one or more lending products
- Write customized programs in Python for meaningful data analysis and predictive modeling, and query large, complex datasets in SQL
- Partner closely with Fraud Operations through the full detection loop — pulling data together, surfacing suspicious patterns, and incorporating their investigation results to refine features and reduce false positives/negatives
- Conduct ad hoc analysis on large, complex datasets to scope new or changing fraud trends and recommend risk, verification, and operational strategies
- Communicate findings clearly to cross-functional partners, provide requirements, and support implementation
- Help improve underwriting and verification processes from a fraud-risk perspective
- A Bachelor's degree in a quantitative field (Statistics, Mathematics, Economics, Computer Science, or similar) or equivalent experience
- Solid programming skills for data analysis — demonstrated through work, internships, coursework, or personal projects
- Working knowledge of relational databases (SQL)
- Foundational knowledge of statistical methods and machine learning
- Comfort using AI tools to improve your workflow and delivery
- Strong problem-solving instincts and a naturally inquisitive, dig-deeper mindset
- Prior experience is not required; fraud, fintech, or lending exposure is a plus, interest in them is a must
