Mercor is seeking senior fraud detection professionals to build evaluation tasks for AI systems operating in Fortune 500 enterprise fraud and financial crimes contexts. The workflows are calibrated to the transaction scale, adversarial sophistication, and financial-loss stakes of Fortune 500 banks, payment companies, and large enterprises.
Contributors design enterprise fraud detection scenarios, draft reference outputs, and write rubrics that capture how senior F500 fraud and financial crimes operators think.
Key Responsibilities
- Construct enterprise fraud scenarios spanning large-scale transaction monitoring, multi-stakeholder investigation workflows, and complex regulatory reporting cycles (SARs, CTRs) at F500 institutions.
- Build tasks across F500 payment fraud, account takeover and identity theft, anti-money laundering (AML), synthetic identity fraud, and merchant/card network fraud.
- Develop fraud operations scenarios involving tools such as SAS Fraud Management, Actimize, Feedzai, and enterprise case management/transaction monitoring platforms in F500 stacks.
- Apply enterprise fraud detection methodologies (rules-based and ML-driven detection models, network/link analysis, KYC/AML frameworks, BSA compliance) and produce reference investigation reports, risk models, and executive-level fraud narratives.
- Author rubrics that distinguish authentic enterprise fraud investigation judgment from generic textbook or certification-exam-level recall.
Ideal Qualifications
- 5+ years working in fraud detection, financial crimes investigation, or AML compliance at a Fortune 500 bank, payments company, or financial institution (JPMorgan Chase, Visa, PayPal, American Express, Wells Fargo).
- Direct ownership of F500-scale fraud detection programs, investigation caseloads, or transaction monitoring systems.
- Fluency in enterprise fraud detection tooling and methodologies, plus understanding of how F500 regulatory reporting (FinCEN, BSA/AML), law enforcement coordination, and case escalation actually work.
- Prior rubric, fraud-investigation training curriculum, or case documentation authorship is a plus.
