The roadmap should be outcome-based and grounded in the voice of the product, balancing fraud protection, athlete trust, conversion, operational impact, and platform resiliency. In this space, strategy requires thinking across the full fraud lifecycle: account creation and monitoring, device and identity signals, pre-authorization checks, bank/payment response, post-purchase fraud review, reject/recycle, fulfillment, returns, reships, chargebacks, and loss prevention operations. Data-Driven Decisions You will establish metrics and measurements for the Digital Fraud product domain to report on value delivered and inform roadmap prioritization. You will use leading and lagging indicators such as fraud loss, chargebacks, manual review rate, cancel trends, order volume, accept/reject/review mix, false positives, SLA/SLO impacts, demand-to-fulfillment outcomes, and operational workload to guide product iteration and trade-off decisions. You will partner with Data Product, Analytics, Engineering, Digital LP, and business stakeholders to improve data quality, reporting, root-cause analysis, and proactive trend identification so Digital Fraud can move from reactive issue response toward proactive risk monitoring and prevention. Testing and Research Lean experimentation is a core value within a product team. You will aid in the formulation of hypotheses and coordinate pilots, proofs of concept, prototypes, vendor evaluations, and research that validate whether new fraud capabilities reduce business risk while preserving athlete conversion and experience. Examples include evaluating device fingerprinting, pre-authorization fraud checks, secondary fraud review, reject/recycle flows, chargeback automation, and enhanced order or athlete signals before scaling implementation. Delivery Part of the job is to manage the backlog. You will create effective user stories, lead backlog prioritization and management, validate delivery with engineers, perform product testing, ensure acceptance criteria are met, capture bugs, and work toward defect resolution. Digital Fraud delivery requires strong dependency management across payment processing, order placement, fulfillment, loyalty, customer service communications, Digital LP workflows, vendor integrations, and peak-season operational readiness. You will create and communicate release plans, risk assessments, go/no-go criteria, production validation plans, and operational readiness details for changes that affect fraud decisioning or athlete order flow. Team Collaboration Working as a team is essential for success. You will actively participate in standups, planning sessions, demos, retrospectives, stakeholder touchpoints, monthly portfolio or business syncs, and vendor discussions. You will act as a translator between business risk, operational workflows, technology constraints, fraud controls, analytics, and athlete experience outcomes.
