About the role
Finance Expert — AI Financial Model Auditor
About The Role
What if your deep knowledge of financial modeling could directly shape how AI performs the work of a professional analyst? We're looking for Finance Subject Matter Experts who also know their way around Python and GitHub to audit, refine, and improve AI-generated financial modeling tasks — making sure they mirror how real analysts actually work.
You'll review AI task instructions and scoring rubrics, then roll up your sleeves and edit Markdown files and Python scripts directly via Pull Requests to fix logic errors, close clarity gaps, and ensure every task meets professional standards. If you can build a DCF in your sleep and know your way around a P&L, this role was made for you.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. Candidates must have strong US-based financial knowledge and fluency with American financial terminology and conventions.
