• Design and develop institutional-quality financial modeling tasks based on real-world investment banking and private equity scenarios.

• Develop gold-standard reference models and objective evaluation rubrics to assess AI-generated outputs for accuracy, structure, and sound financial logic.
• Build and review advanced transaction-oriented models, including integrated 3-statement models, DCFs (including WACC and sensitivity analysis), LBOs, M&A models, and growth equity frameworks.

• Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers, providing clear written explanations for assumptions, methodologies, and modeling logic.

Qualifications

• At least 5 years of recent, hands-on experience in investment banking, private equity, growth equity, hedge funds, Growth Venture Capital or similar corporate development roles.
• Demonstrated expertise in independently building complex financial models from scratch—no templates.
• Mastery of integrated 3-statement modeling, DCFs, LBOs, and advanced transaction modeling.
• Proven ability to perform scenario and sensitivity analyses and assess transaction risk/return.
• Deep transaction judgment and meticulous attention to detail, reflecting institutional standards.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with a passion for documentation and explanation.
• Self-motivated and comfortable working independently in a high-expectation, remote environment.

Requirements

• Experience across both sell-side (investment banking) and buy-side (private equity, growth equity, growth VC) domains.
• Familiarity with creating or evaluating technical content, training materials, or assessment rubrics, and handling complex or non-standard transactions (carve-outs, spin-offs, minority investments).

Benefits

• Compensation: $115 - $200/hour-pay
