KYC/CDD/AML Specialist - AI Trainer - Freelance - 8-20 hrs/week - Remote

Role Summary

Updated: 07 July 2026

Freelance | 8–20 hrs/week | Remote (EU/UK)

Are you an experienced KYC, CDD, or AML professional who instinctively spots gaps in compliance reasoning and understands the real-world complexities of financial crime prevention? Do you have 8 to 20 hours per week available alongside your main job or consulting projects? Join us in shaping how AI understands and applies financial crime compliance across the EU and UK.

10x.team connects expert freelancers with leading AI labs building next-generation models. We’re looking for experienced legal, compliance, and financial services professionals based in the EU or UK to strengthen the accuracy, depth, and practical application of AI-powered compliance tools.

In simple terms

You will assess and improve AI-generated compliance content, ensuring it reflects authentic regulatory understanding, robust risk assessment, and real-world processes. Rather than conducting traditional compliance reviews, you’ll apply your expertise to help AI systems genuinely reason about KYC, CDD, and AML at scale.

Responsibilities

• Review and refine AI-generated outputs across KYC, CDD, AML, and financial crime compliance topics
• Evaluate AI responses for regulatory accuracy, business realism, and practical applicability (e.g., 4th/5th AMLD, JMLSG guidance, FCA frameworks)
• Draft realistic compliance scenarios based on your direct experience (customer onboarding, risk assessment, investigations, SARs)
• Create scenario variations from diverse perspectives (compliance analyst, MLRO, auditor, regulator)
• Identify gaps, weak logic, or oversights in AI-generated compliance reasoning

Requirements

• A senior compliance, legal, or financial crime specialist with significant experience in KYC, CDD, or AML within the EU or UK
• Background in legal consulting, compliance, in-house regulatory roles, or risk/audit
• Skilled at evaluating compliance processes and documentation
• Confident working independently and delivering structured, critical feedback
• Available for 8–20 hours per week, with prompt availability

At 10x, there are two types of opportunities

1. Traditional freelance missions

These are regular project-based opportunities where the listed mission is the actual project you may work on.

1. AI Lab roles

For AI Lab roles, we scout, review, and approve profiles for access to future project opportunities.

The missions listed for AI Lab roles are not traditional job openings. AI Lab work is often highly confidential as this exposes information of what an AI Lab is working on, and project requests are unpredictable. When an AI Lab request comes in, we often need to respond within 24 hours with suitable talent.

• Matching depends on the specific needs of each AI Lab project and your niche expertise. Once your profile is reviewed and approved, you may be matched to relevant AI Lab projects when suitable opportunities arise.
• This can happen within hours, but it may also take months, depending on the researchers at the AI labs and their project needs.
• Salary: €91 – €140 per hour
