Role Description
This is a fully remote position, open to candidates based in the United States.
Job Title: U.S based Accountant (CPA/CA)
Job Type: Contract
Location: Remote
Job Summary:
-
You'll use your tax expertise to help train next-generation AI systems.
-
The core work involves reading US sales and use tax statutes and defining what an AI's formal translation of the law must capture to be correct.
-
Work spans multiple state jurisdictions, with some federal provisions as well.
-
No prior AI experience needed; your ability to read a statute and break it into precise, testable requirements is what matters.
Key Responsibilities:
-
Read and interpret sales and use tax statutes and regulations across US state jurisdictions, and occasionally federal tax provisions, at the level of individual subsections.
-
Author rubrics: break a section of law into a checklist of discrete requirements the AI's translation must satisfy, grounded strictly in the statute text and written independently of the AI's output.
-
Assign severity to each requirement (critical vs. secondary vs. minor) based on genuine statutory weight, not defaulting everything to critical.
-
Review the AI's formal translation of a statute and score it pass/fail against your rubric, checking that conditions, thresholds, AND/OR logic, and exceptions are captured accurately.
-
Write clear, self-contained test scenarios (including edge cases) for failed criteria, with explicit facts, dates, amounts, and expected outcomes.
-
Identify and flag discrepancies, statutory exceptions, and genuine ambiguities in the law.
-
Work within a digital review platform, submitting structured written evaluations.
Qualifications
-
Active CPA license, Chartered Accountant designation, or experience as a US tax attorney.
-
Sales and use tax or broader state and local tax statutory experience strongly preferred.
-
Proven ability to read and interpret tax statutes and regulations, not just prepare returns.
-
Comfort working with legal logic: conditions, thresholds, AND/OR structures, exceptions, and defined terms.
-
Strong written communication with a focus on precision.
-
High attention to detail, especially around "except for" clauses and edge cases.
-
Comfort providing structured feedback through a digital review interface.
Preferred Qualifications
-
Experience across multiple state tax jurisdictions.
-
Enrolled Agent designation, or federal tax experience relevant to the scenario-review track.
-
Direct experience reviewing or validating AI or technology-driven tax content.
-
Background in training teams or giving written feedback on legal/tax language.
-
Interest in the intersection of technology and tax compliance.
