Financial Services Fraud Investigation Expert

**Role Overview**

our client is partnering with leading AI labs on **Project Atlas**, an initiative to build realistic enterprise environments that frontier AI agents are trained and evaluated in. We're seeking experienced fraud-investigation and financial-crime professionals from **Fortune 500 banks, major card issuers, and large fintech or insurance firms** to recreate the digital workspaces they run every day and design the tasks that genuinely challenge state-of-the-art AI.

You'll bring your expertise in AML/BSA, fraud operations, investigations, or financial-crime compliance to build a high-fidelity environment that mirrors the tools, files, and case-management workflows of a major financial institution, and then author tasks grounded in the investigations you actually run today.

**Key Responsibilities**

• Build a realistic digital workspace centered on the Drive folders you use day-to-day, the case files, investigation write-ups, SAR / CTR drafts, typology memos, alert-triage notes, and email threads that reflect how you actually organize your work, with some representation of the platforms that support it (e.g., Refinitiv World-Check / Dow Jones Risk & Compliance, Splunk SIEM, Fiserv or FIS exports)

• Design multi-step tasks grounded in your real workflows that require navigating multiple apps, files, and stakeholders in a way that meaningfully challenges frontier AI agents

• Collaborate with other fraud and financial-crime experts in your field to design the environment, shape task scope, and review each other's scenarios for realism and rigor

• Work asynchronously with research teams to refine task designs and evaluation criteria for fraud-investigation agent benchmarks

• Contribute to frontier AI research and benchmarking, the work you produce directly informs how leading labs train and evaluate the next generation of AI systems

**Ideal Qualifications**

• 3+ years of full-time fraud / financial-crime experience at a **Fortune 500 bank, large card issuer, fintech, or insurance firm**

• Background in one or more areas such as:

• BSA/AML compliance, sanctions screening (OFAC), and SAR/CTR filings

• Fraud operations, application fraud, account-takeover, transaction fraud, first-party fraud

• Financial-crime investigations, EDD, and high-risk-customer review

• Insurance claims fraud (SIU) or merchant/acquirer fraud

• Regulatory exam response (OCC, FinCEN, Fed, state DFS)

• Certifications a plus: CAMS, CFE, CFCS

• Day-to-day use of Refinitiv World-Check or Dow Jones Risk & Compliance, Splunk SIEM or Microsoft Sentinel, and FIS / Fiserv / Jack Henry

• Strong analytical thinking and writing, able to translate investigations into structured task specs

**Compensation Note**

• **Task Completion Pay:** Competitive and based on task quality (~$1,150, $1,450 per completed task, subject to change as the project evolves)

• **Performance Bonus:** Top performers receive a weekly bonus incentive on top of their per task rate!

• **Hourly Opportunity:** Top performers may be invited to transition to an hourly compensation model based on sustained quality and throughput.
