Job description

Mindrift connects specialists with project-based AI opportunities for leading tech companies, focused on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems. Participation is project-based, not permanent employment.

What this opportunity involves

While each project involves unique tasks, contributors may:

• Design and evaluate rule application scenarios — reading a compliance artifact (advertisement, disclosure, policy) against a specific regulation and citing the exact subsection that applies or is violated;
• Write sanctions alert disposition cases with structured false-positive reasoning documentation and escalation scenarios;
• Build compliance testing scenarios: sample selection, test design, findings documentation, and examiner-ready conclusion memos;
• Develop policy gap identification cases where an internal policy is silent on a regulatory requirement, contradicts the regulation, or has not been updated to reflect a recent change;
• Document all test cases with verified regulatory citations to the specific subsection — never approximated, never fabricated.

What we look for

This opportunity is a good fit for professionals with a background in compliance, regulatory affairs, legal services, or broader financial services who are open to part-time, non-permanent projects. Ideally, contributors will have:

• Degree in law, finance, economics, business administration, accounting, or any related field;
• 2+ years of compliance, audit, legal, risk management, or financial services experience;
• Current or recent experience in compliance and regulatory roles, financial crimes, or adjacent roles;
• Citation discipline as a core habit — able to identify the exact regulatory subsection that applies and flag uncertainty rather than approximate;
• CRCM, CAMS, or equivalent local credential is a strong positive signal; former regulatory examiner or inspector status is equally strong;

Project time expectations

For this project, tasks are estimated to require around 10-20 hours per week during active phases, based on project requirements. This is an estimate, not a guaranteed workload, and applies only while the project is active.

Compensation

On this project, contributors can earn up to $50 per hour equivalent, depending on their level and pace of contribution.

Compensation varies across projects depending on scope, complexity, and required expertise. Please note that other projects on the platform may offer different earning levels based on their requirements.
