the following cases illustrate - but are not exhaustive of - my body of work at nubank, a latin american digital bank. if you would like to know more, contact me here.


case: credit refinancing
location: colombia

in development
 

case: credit increases
location: colombia

problem

credit lines were neither matching users’ expectations nor fitting their needs, and nubank colombia lacked the ability to raise them. users were feeling frustrated, declaring “increase credit lines” their primary pain point, and were transacting less with our credit card than with others, endangering our credit business’ sustainable growth.

actions

i collaborated with multidisciplinary team members to build the foundations for credit increases' underwriting and user experience. i challenged and debated business analysts and product operators' business proposals to derive our credit policies. understanding data scientists and engineers' pains, i upgraded our technical architecture by implementing a global data ml infrastructure in colombia. i informed, challenged and debated data scientists, designers, engineers, lawyers and product operators' design proposals to devise a credit-increase ux/ui.

achievement

nubank colombia launched credit increases, lifting unit balance by 14%, unit revenue by 20%, csat by 28 percentage points and nps by 5 points - with no statistically significant effect on delinquency.

case: open banking
location: colombia

problem

local alternative data sources failed to evidence a meaningful impact on nubank colombia’s credit model. as our applicant base diversified, it increasingly rejected applicants eager to obtain and to use our credit card, constraining our credit business.

actions

i collaborated with multidisciplinary team members to drive clarity to build and to test open banking. i informed, challenged and debated business analysts, data scientists, designers, engineers and product managers' design proposals to conduct user research. i informed, challenged and debated business analysts, data scientists, designers, engineers, lawyers, product managers, product operators and risk officers' design proposals to devise an open-banking ux/ui.

achievement

nubank colombia tested open banking, validating 5% unique income data compared to our credit model’s data sources, surpassing all except for one credit bureau. the global credit-strategy team yellow-lighted it for further evaluation, as of 24h2.
