AML Analyst

AML Analyst 

Remote (Worldwide) | 6-Month Contract 

Lucinity is the Human AI company fighting financial crime — blending human judgement with AI to help compliance teams increase capacity and strengthen oversight without giving up control.  

Most AML analysts review alerts. You'll review alerts — and help build the AI that changes how that work gets done. 

This is a 6-month contract on Lucinity's operations team. The role is hands-on: real alerts, real investigations, real escalations. But it comes with an unusual twist. As you work through cases, you'll collaborate directly with the team developing Luci, our AI agent — helping shape how AI and human analysts work together to cut investigation time without cutting corners. Your real-world feedback directly informs how we train, tune, and deploy AI-assisted workflows. 

Operations work with a front-row seat to what comes next. 

What You’ll Do 

You’ll review transaction monitoring alerts generated by Lucinity’s platform, assess them for suspicious activity, and escalate cases where warranted. You’ll also help tune and improve detection scenarios — using our no-code configuration tools to reduce false positives without missing the real risks. 

Responsibilities 

• Review and triage AML alerts in line with applicable AML policies and risk appetite. 

• Conduct initial investigations into potentially suspicious activity, documenting findings clearly and completely. 

• Escalate cases requiring SAR filing, ensuring reports are accurate, timely, and regulatory-defensible. 

• Provide structured feedback on alert quality, investigation workflows, and tooling — your observations feed directly into how we develop AI-assisted investigation capabilities. 

• Collaborate with the compliance and product teams to improve investigation efficiency and consistency. 

• Maintain up-to-date knowledge of relevant AML regulations and typologies — FATF guidance, local financial intelligence unit requirements, and emerging financial crime trends. 

• Contribute to quality assurance processes and help build internal knowledge on emerging typologies. 
  
  

Who You Are 

You know your way around an alert queue and specifically a transaction monitoring one. You’re methodical, curious, and you take the work seriously — because you understand what’s at stake when financial crime goes undetected. You’re also comfortable with modern tooling and genuinely interested in how AI can make investigation work faster and sharper; you see AI as a way to focus your time on the decisions that need human judgement. 

You likely have: 

• 1–3 years of experience in AML compliance, financial crime operations, or a closely related role at a bank, fintech, or payment institution. Transaction monitoring experience is strongly preferred. 

• Solid understanding of AML typologies, alert investigation workflows, and SAR filing requirements. 

• Experience working within a risk-based approach and comfort applying regulatory frameworks in practice. 

• Clear, accurate written communication — your case notes and SAR narratives speak for themselves. 

• A collaborative working style; you share what you know and ask when you don’t. 

• Familiarity with transaction monitoring or case management platforms  
  
  

Desirable: ICA, ACAMS, or equivalent certification; experience with multiple monitoring platforms or multi-entity compliance structures. 

Why Join Lucinity? 

• Be part of a mission-driven company helping the world fight financial crime. 

• Work at the frontier of Human AI operations — your day-to-day investigation work directly shapes how Luci, our AI agent, is built and deployed. 

• Collaborate with a curious, international, and impact-focused team spread globally. 

• Work fully remotely from anywhere in the world. 

• Have a genuine say in how AI-assisted compliance evolves — not from a product roadmap, but from the investigation floor.
