This was an innovation role where we developed and introduced a new product—and integrated several existing technology systems to identify suspected transactions based on specific attributes and algorithms automatically. This latest fraud detection method reduced credit card fraud faster and more reliably than previous means and became the industry standard. JP Morgan was among the first card bases to pilot this invention, which is the basis of modern fraud detection systems today. • Oracle DBA, Systems integration architect• FICO Falcon Manager systems architect• Gasper ATM alerting system integration architect• IVRU integrated voice response administrator• Tandem NonStop – B24
