As an AI Consulting Specialist, you will be crucial in translating complex real-world consulting workflows into structured tasks, datasets, and detailed evaluation criteria. This work aims to significantly enhance advanced AI systems' reasoning and problem-solving capabilities. This opportunity is ideal for self-starters who excel in structured thinking and asynchronous collaboration within a deliverables-driven environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Break down end-to-end consulting workflows (problem structuring → analysis → synthesis) into clear task specifications and evaluation rubrics.
• Review, edit, and benchmark AI-generated outputs, including market analyses, strategic recommendations, operating models, and executive summaries.
• Create high-quality reference examples (e.g., issue trees, analytical models, slide outlines) adhering to professional consulting standards.
• Identify logical gaps, unsupported assumptions, and weak reasoning in AI outputs; document failure patterns and provide improvement guidance.
• Collaborate asynchronously with researchers and fellow contributors using structured documentation and written feedback.

Ideal Qualifications

• 2+ years of experience at a top-tier management consulting firm or reputable boutique consultancy.
• Strong understanding of hypothesis-driven problem solving and executive-level synthesis.
• Advanced skills in PowerPoint and Excel.
• Experience with market sizing, financial/operating analysis, and qualitative research.
• Excellent written communication and structured thinking skills.
• Ability to manage time effectively and meet deadlines in a remote setting.

Role Details

• Expected commitment: 10+ hours per week.
• Deliverables-driven structure with defined quality standards.
• Fully remote and flexible scheduling.
• Ongoing support available for best practices and clarifications.

Application Process

Interested candidates should submit a brief resume or LinkedIn profile detailing their consulting background and areas of expertise. This will be followed by a short skills questionnaire. A time-boxed exercise may be used to assess fit. Selected candidates will then be contacted with next steps and additional project details. All qualified applicants will be considered without regard to legally protected characteristics. Reasonable accommodations are available upon request.

Contract and Payment Terms

This engagement is structured as an independent contractor role, offering fully remote work on a flexible schedule. The project scope may be extended, shortened, or concluded based on needs and performance.
